Stepping into a pawn shop can be a daunting experience for the uninitiated. AJ & R Pawn Shop's friendly neighborhood vibe makes things easy and entices you to take a look around. Staffers chat with customers, many of whom seem to be regulars. You came to sell some no-longer-loved jewelry, maybe, but then you glance over at the DVDs and notice more than a few titles on your wish list, all at rock-bottom prices. Before you know it, you're greedily pawing through them like there's no tomorrow — and then you discover the CD selection has a few gems, too. In fact, you see so many things that you'd like to buy that you almost forget that you're there to take home a little scratch. Never fear — it's quite possible that you can leave AJ & R with a few new things and some extra cash in your pocket.
