SDL13 Springsdale's 5 & 10 is based on Vidler's 5 & 10 in East Aurora, New York. It all started in 1930, during the midst of the Great Depression, when Robert S.Vidler, Sr. opened his 5 & 10 in the quaint village of East Aurora. Despite the nay-sayers who took bets that the store wouldn't last a year, the store survived and prospered! Today this third generation family business still maintains the character and charm it always had and is now ten times the size of the original store!
