Five & Dime General Store

Description:

• Shopping in downtown Santa Fe can be a literally taxing experience when you don't have thousands of dollars to spend or are simply after a carton of milk. If you are searching for practical, affordable, everyday items among the howling coyotes and squash blossom necklaces that dominate Plaza shopping, Five and Dime is your answer. Here, they understand that there are times when a turquoise belt is no substitute for a toothbrush. In addition to gum, aspirin, postcards and such, Five and Dime includes a lunch counter, renowned for the unique presentation of its frito pies: rather than the usual cheap bowl, they are served in little Frito bags.
