Get your tote bags ready! Or your shopping stocking! Or your giant shoe! Whatever will hold your movies… Are you confused yet? Let me clarify!

Starting today until Friday May 21st, we are holding a contest to raise awareness about plastic bags. Don’t worry, we will still be offering them for everyone, so if you don’t have a bag, we have you handled! At the same time, we realize the damage that plastic bags do to the environment, so we would like to help raise awareness about them!

If you come into the store, you will notice there are pamphlets on display regarding plastic bags. For the contest, however, we will be handing out a special edition of the pamphlet to every customer who makes a purchase and declines a bag. This pamphlet will be different from the ones on display because they will contain an entry code to win a $25 store credit!

So from this Friday until next, anytime you make a purchase and decline a plastic bag, one of our employees will offer you a coded pamphlet. Just keep hold of the pamphlet and check our blog (you’re currently here) on Saturday, May 22nd to see which code is the winner. If you’re the lucky winner, bring it down with an I.D. (or the I.D. of an adult 18 and over) and we’ll set up a store account for you with $25.00 on it!

Yes, we know it’s kind of silly to hold a contest about plastic bags by handing out a bunch of paper pamphlets. On the bright side, the pamphlets are made from 100% recycled paper. Things could be worse!

And no, we won’t scold you if you choose to get a plastic bag! We know they come in handy, and we definitely don’t want to discourage our lovely, delicious customers from buying things!
