Report
After driving 45 minutes from Morganton to help my grandmother, we stopped by TAS to purchase a shower chair. Our 11 year old daughter needed to use the restroom very badly and we were sure she would be able to be relieved at a drug store...but, they wouldnt allow her to use it!! Needless to say we didnt buy the shower chair there and will not patronize the store without the use of a public restroom or at least a merciful staff that would allow an 11 year old to use the restroom.
