                        ---------------------------------

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1.                 The consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 1995 and
                  the consolidated statements of income for the three months
                  ended April 30, 1995 and May 1, 1994, the consolidated
                  statements of changes in financial position for the three
                  months ended April 30, 1995 and May 1, 1994 have been prepared
                  by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management,
                  all adjustments (which include only normal adjustments)
                  necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of
                  operations and changes in financial position at those dates
                  have been made. The operating results for the quarter ended
                  April 30, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results
                  that may be expected for the fiscal period ending January 28,
                  1996, as the Company's sales volume is seasonal.

Note 2.                 The Company completed a private placement on June 28,
                  1993 (the "1993 Private Placement"). This private placement
                  consisted of $1,800,000 7.5% senior subordinated secured notes
                  and $200,000 for 400,000 shares of common stock. Costs
                  associated with this private placement have been allocated
                  between the debt and equity portions of the private placement.
                  The costs allocated to the equity portion offset the increase
                  in additional paid-in capital. The unamortized costs allocated
                  to the debt portion were expensed in full during the quarter
                  ended April 30, 1995 as the principal was repaid from the
                  proceeds of the Company's public offering consummated on March
                  23, 1995 (see Note 4).

Note 3.                 On April 28, 1994, the Company consummated a private
                  placement (the "1994 Private Placement") with respect to an
                  aggregate of $1.2 million Principal Amount 7% Convertible
                  Senior Subordinated Debentures of the Company due two years
                  from the date of issuance, convertible into shares of the
                  Company's Common Stock at any time prior to maturity, unless
                  previously redeemed, at an initial conversion price of $5.00
                  per share.

                        The Debentures are subordinated in right of payment to
                  any future bank indebtedness up to $1 million and are
                  expressly senior in right of payment to all other Company
                  obligations. The Debentures are

                                        7

<PAGE>



                  redeemable, in whole only, from time to time at the option of
                  the Company at a redemption price equal to 100% of the
                  principal amount thereof plus accrued interest, provided that
                  the Debentures may not be redeemed prior to maturity unless,
                  during any period of 20 consecutive trading days ending within
                  30 days prior to the giving of the notice of redemption, the
                  market price for the Common Stock is at least 125% of the
                  conversion price.

                        Costs associated with this debt, totalling $190,250,
                  have been included in Deferred Debt Issuance Costs and will be
                  amortized over the life of the debt, which is two years.

                        Interest on the Debentures is payable semi-annually.

Note 4.                 On March 23, 1995, the Company consummated a public
                  offering of 2,000,000 Units through Thomas James Associates,
                  Inc., now known as H.J. Meyers & Co., Inc., as Representative
                  of the Underwriters. Each Unit consisted of one share of the
                  Company's Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, and one
                  Redeemable Common Stock Purchase Warrant. The public offering
                  price of each Unit was $3.00. The net proceeds to the Company
                  from the offering was approximately $4.7 million, giving
                  effect to expenses related to the offering. A portion of such
                  proceeds has been used to retire $1.8 million in indebtedness
                  related to the 1993 Private Placement.

                        On April 28, 1995, the Company received net proceeds of
                  approximately $569,000 in connection with a partial exercise
                  of the overallotment option relating to the public offering.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
         Condition and Results of Operations.

OVERVIEW
- --------

      During the first quarter of the current fiscal year, the Company
consummated a public offering of 2,000,000 Units through Thomas James
Associates, Inc., now known as H.J. Meyers & Co., Inc., as Representative of the
Underwriters (the "Public Offering"). Each Unit consisted of one share of the
Company's Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, and one Redeemable Common
Stock Purchase Warrant. The Public Offering price of each Unit was $3.00. The
net proceeds to the Company from the Public Offering was approximately $4.7
million, giving effect to expenses related to the offering. In addition, on
April 28, 1995, the Company received net proceeds of approximately $569,000 in
connection with a partial exercise of the overallotment option relating to the
Public Offering.

FINANCIAL POSITION
- ------------------

      Cash and cash equivalents amounted to $2,301,013 at April 30, 1995 as
compared to $519,470 at January 29, 1995. Cash was increased by approximately
$4.7 million from the net proceeds of the Public Offering. A portion of such
proceeds have been used to retire $1.8 million in indebtedness related to the
1993 Private Placement and to reduce certain trade accounts payable. Inventories
increased by $461,548 from $4,732,204 at January 29, 1995 to $5,193,752 at April
30, 1995. Prepaid expenses increased by $35,697. Other current liabilities,
accrued payroll and accrued sales taxes payable decreased, in the aggregate, by
$54,431 from $304,513 at January 29, 1995 to $250,082 at April 30, 1995. The
current portion of long-term debt decreased by $1,801,742 as a result of the
repayment of amounts due under the 1993 Private Placement, and increased by $1.2
million due to the maturing of the debt associated with the 1994 Private
Placement.

      Net sales for the three months ended April 30, 1995 were $2,423,148 as
compared with $2,275,353 for the three months ended May 1, 1994, an increase of
6.5%. Comparable store sales decreased by 0.7% for the corresponding period.

      Gross profit margin for the three months ending April 30, 1995 was 38.0%,
as compared to 36.4% for the same period last year. In absolute dollars, gross
profit increased from $829,128 for the three months ended May 1, 1994 to
$920,773 for the three months ended April 30, 1995. The increase in absolute
gross profit dollars of $91,645 resulted from improved margins and increased
sales volume during the current fiscal year.

      Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the three months ended
April 30, 1995 increased by $153,046, or 18.0%. The increase is attributable to
the operation of an additional store during the first quarter ended April 30,
1995 as against the first quarter ended May 1, 1994. On a same store basis,
selling, general and administrative expenses increased by approximately $22,000.
The Company is continuing to make concerted efforts to reduce its operating
costs.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
- -------------------------------

      Working capital was $4,020,971 at April 30, 1995, as compared to $281,325
as of January 29, 1995. This increase was principally the result of the Public
Offering and repayment of the debt associated with the 1993 Private Placement.
The Company's current ratio as of April 30, 1995 was 2.02 to one, as compared to
1.05 to one at January 29, 1995.

      The Public Offering resulted in net proceeds of approximately $4.7 million
to the Company. A portion of such proceeds have been used to retire $1.8 million
in indebtedness related to the 1993 Private Placement. The remainder of the
proceeds will be used to develop new stores, modernize existing facilities,
expand the Company's Management Information System, and for working capital.

      On April 28, 1995, the Company received net proceeds of approximately
$569,000 in connection with a partial exercise of the overallotment option
relating to the Public Offering. Such proceeds were allocated to working
capital.

      At present, the Company has sufficient capital resources and cash flow to
maintain operations and to increase the number of its retail store units. The
Company is seeking a new banking relationship in order to establish a line of
credit to finance its working capital requirements.
