Today I want to talk about an innovative business for the Vacation Crowd at the Delaware Beach. I ran across this new company that takes a lot of stress out of that week at the beach. Their name is “Sheets at the Beachâ€.
This company will rent you high quality sheets, towels, Beach Canopy, Beach Chairs, Beach Blankets, Aerobeds, Cribs, Strollers, and many other products. Now you don’t have to pack all this stuff or if you are flying in, it is a whole lot less to bring. Check out their website: http://sheetsatthebeach.com/
Have a great vacation this Summer!
