Answer:  STATIONARY

(A homophonic pun!  Haven’t had one of those in a while!  There were no new clue words today, but all of the jumbles came up as new, for me.  Once again, I struggled to get “casino”.  I had to back into it.  The answer letter layout was good, but even with only seven of the letters I was able to figure out the gag.  The cartoon was unremarkable, but it definitely got the point across.  The store’s name:  The Write Stuff was cute.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
