NEW!!! The "Cool Deal of the Week"

READ THIS!!!

Beginning 11/1, we will be offering an item or a line of items on a special sale for one week.

Every Monday, we will be emailing you what the "Deal" is for that week.

Deals will start on a Tuesday and end the following Monday.

If you are currently on our email list, you will AUTOMATICALLY be added to the Deal mailing list!!! BUT if you don't want to receive those emails, simply go to the bottom of this email and click on "Update Profile/Email Address" and de-select the mailing list for the Deal Email. You can still get these emails about classes, etc. without getting Deal emails.

A "Deal" could be a discount on an item (between 25% and 40%), or "Buy one item and get a different item for free", or a straight "BOGO".

Deal Guarantee - if you have bought the Deal item within 30 days prior to the Deal starting, simply bring in your original register receipt showing the purchase and we will make the adjustment. Sorry, but yes, you must come into the store.

Rainchecks - while we will be ordering LOTS of the items in the Deal, if we run out, you can get a Raincheck!!!

Sorry, deals will only be offered "in store". We won't be able to ship Deals.

See store for complete details. There is, of course, some "Fine Print". See the store for complete details.

We'll be offering weekly Deals through the end of the year.

Our first Deal Email will be sent on 10/31/11, so DON'T FORGET TO CHECK YOUR EMAIL!!!

Starting next Tuesday, every Tuesday through the end of the year, you'll get DOUBLE Frequent Buyer discount on your eligible purchases!

Give us a break if we forget at first! We're going to have to get used to it, so feel free to remind us at checkout that it's "Tightwad Tuesday" so that we give you your proper credit!!! :)

Clearance on Clearance

Another 50% off of already marked down items

Most of our Outdoor Clearance is already 40% off. And, we are still offering ANOTHER 50% off of that already clearanced price.

Payment Methods

We have had a lot of customers ask us how we prefer to receive payment for your purchases - and ask what is the cheapest method for us.

· Credit and Debit cards cost us money to take so these are not our favorite.

· Payment over the phone is REALLY expensive, so if you can stop by, that is always best.

· We love to receive cash, but please, no bills higher than $20's.

· And WE TAKE CHECKS!! We need ID that can be run through our TeleCheck machine, but we prefer to take a check! It's no additional fee to us and our service guarantees payment. So, checks are our preference.

Soda Machine

If you get thirsty while shopping, we have a soda/water dispenser in the back of the store. We've had him almost 2 years, but people still don't know about him. His name is Spencer (because he is a soda disSPENCER... lol!)

Sodas are $1. Waters are 80¢. And our newest addition is Snapple Peach Green Tea for $1.

Bags

Please BYOB: Bring Your Own Bag! Or hand-carry out your items! Less bags are good for the environment and save us money!
