Paget Drycleaners back in business

A new-look Paget Drycleaners is re-opening on October 6 following Hurricane Fabian's onslaught. The Lover's Lane business, open 8 a.m.-7 p.m. Monday through Saturday, has undergone a renovation. As a welcome back, the business is offering a special bonus to a lucky customer - $1,000 worth or one year of free drycleaning, whichever comes first. A company spokesman said: “All you have to do is bring your drycleaning in during October and you'll be qualified to enter and if you mention hurricane Fabian during October, we'll help you out and give you 10 percent off your drycleaning bill.”
