Georgia is home to some pretty unusual spots. We’ve mentioned a few of those places in passing…ahem, the Museum Of Mystery in Georgia is not for the faint of heart. But we’ve recently stumbled upon a unique place to shop, fondly nicknamed Atlanta’s Alternative Super Store, this is the type of crazy, one-of-a-kind store you’ll only find in Georgia. Let’s go shopping at Junkman’s Daughter in Georgia…
Junkman’s Daughter originally began in 1982, when a woman named Pam Majors rented out a 1,000-foot store to sell things her parents accumulated over the last 40 years.

Majors had a knack for the bizarre, which is why most of the items you find inside the now-10,000 square-foot-store lean more toward unusual.
