McDonald Expands Haggle Shop Network in Town

McDonald ran Bill's Haggle Shop and acquired sites through auctions and BAUS purchases. Donnie Comer recalls friendly competition with nearby eateries as McDonald’s ventures moved from original Haggle Shop location to spaces once home to Spotswood Cafeteria and Robinson's Department Store. McDonald previously owned the 33rd Precinct Restaurant in Norfolk and worked as a police officer, private investigator, and deputy treasurer before moving to Elkton.
