VIDEO: Off-Beat Stores for Holiday Shopping

Ax-Man Surplus and Vados Bait and Tackle are among the unconventional stores where Fridley residents do their holiday shopping.

At Ax-Man Surplus, you can pick up a disembodied baby doll torso, acres of electrical wire and a Bill Clinton-shaped corkscrew.

Vados Bait and Tackle offers custom-made fishing poles and live bait popular throughout the state. 

Both stores' owners say they are popular for holiday shopping.
