Janesville Shopping: 10 Distinctive and Unique Shops to Visit
There are so many artsy and unique places to shop in Janesville. Some of the coolest shops are directly located in the downtown area. Some travel to find shops they would never find back home, and Janesville is an underrated shopping mecca in Wisconsin. If only I had a lot more luggage space to bring my stuff home, I would have gotten a lot more things! My bank account is thanking the airlines who have put luggage limits.
