It started with a simple phone call.

A perfectly-timed, simple phone call that has resulted in a new business in downtown Tracy.

Sid (Karbo) Fultz’s new Tattle Tales Boutique opened this past Monday at 124 3rd St. in a building owned by Jay Fultz. If the name of the shop sounds familiar, that’s because Tattle Tales originated on Main St. in Marshall.

This is where the phone call comes in.

Fultz put in a call to the previous co-owner of the business, Beth Blomme, curious about her future plans. As it turns out, that’s when Fultz learned Blomme was retiring after seven-and-a-half years of ownership. On Aug. 26, Fultz signed all the papers and officially took over with her plans to bring Tattle Tales to Tracy.
