Happenings at A Place in Time on February 15th, 2012

Good Day Everyone,

Valentine's Day is over, but I hope the "spirit" of the day lasts all year long. As I mentioned in my last Blog, A Place in Time will be celebrating our store anniversary this coming 3 day weekend (Feb. 18th - Feb. 20th). We have put together a variety of Make and Take Its, Demonstrations, Mini Classes, Games, Prizes, and a Sale that should be fun for everyone. Did I get your attention with the idea of a Sale? We are planning on the arrival of new product in the store and we need to "move" some of out existing items. You will find product lines that will be offered at 50% - 70% off. Discount cards will not be usable with these sale items.

To make things interesting, the saving do not end with the discounted items. Many of you have experienced our in-store Trivia Games. This weekend, in honor of my "Dragon" wife and the current calendar year, we will playing Dragon Trivia. Our version of this game gives you two options if you don't know the answer. 1. You can do a "Store Shout Out" (ask anybody in the store) or 2. You can phone a friend (Google is my best friend). Assuming you answer the question correctly, you will get to draw a Fortune Cookie from the basket. Inside the cookie you will find store discounts up to 30% off or some very nice prizes. To make it more exciting, discount card holders will be able to use their cards for additional savings. The coupons will be good for the duration of our weekend Anniversary Celebration. Discounts coupons are limited to stock on hand.

Think we're done? Nope.... If you spend $50.00 or more after the discounts have been applied we will give you a Gift Coupon worth 10% off the total of your next purchase. Discount card holders may use their cards with these coupons. Items excluded from the coupon will be Memory Box, Eclips machines, Liquid Pearls, and any sale item. The coupons will be valid for March 1st thru March 15th.

How many of you like paper? Silly question. We will be offering Paper Packs for a $1.00 each. These are are quality acid free/archival papers from our racks. Quantities may vary with-in the pack. Single sided, double sided, card stock or text weight - It will be your choice while supplies last.

Lastly, the sale will include 50% off all items on two of our North Walls. Don't know which direction North is? Don't worry, we will make sure it's properly labeled. Also, all Christmas related items will be 50% off (excludes Dreamweaver and A Place in Time stencils).

For your entertainment and as an educational element, A Place in Time will be having the following Make and Take Its, Demos, and Mini Classes:
