SALADO, Texas - Three best friends who have known each other since their freshman year of high school are now the co-owners of Salado Antique Mall, a shop that has operated in its current location for 20 years.

Sandra Evans, Cathy Petty, and Rory Tyson - Evans and Petty are sisters, and Tyson has been close with the family since 1984 - spent more than 20 years selling on eBay and Facebook Marketplace before opening a booth at the mall on Aug. 1 of last year.

Within months, the three decided to buy the entire operation.
