Big Birthday Bash!
To celebrate my BIG BIRTHDAY, Friday October 14th, we are going to have balloons! In the balloons will be discounts from 10%-50%! You will pick anything in the store (yes including books and needles) and then pick your balloon! We will then pop the balloon and see what your discount will be! There will be no adding or subtracting of items once the balloons is popped!! PLEASE DON'T ASK! This is one of the very rare times that books and needles are on sale, so you may want to stock up....
