The thrill of shopping without the guilt!
I hope everyone's ready for back to school- I always find the first week absolutely exhausting. It takes a few days to get back into the routine of early bedtimes and 6 AM wake-ups.
Here at N2N we've been busy busy busy putting out great fall fashions- come on in to get the jump on cool weather wear.
Let's do the Wild Card Sale. Pick a card to find out where your 30% off discount is. It could be pants and shorts, shoes and bags, infant wear, dresses and sets, even storewide...who knows?
And we believe in do-overs. If you don't like your first card, feel free to draw again!
Each week, we'll be doing cash buying for one area in the shop that really needs inventory. This week, it's SCRUBS .
Here's how it works... bring your scrubs that are in great condition. We'll buy them for cash. You can bring in other clothing and accessories as well- we'll buy them for credit as usual. Please pack your scrubs separately and let us know that you have cash items when you come in. Buying hours are the same: Monday thru Thursday 10AM to 4PM and other times by prior arrangement.
We'll be buying scrubs for cash all week- through Thursday, August 6th. Check next week's newsletter to see what the next buy-for-cash department will be.

Just call me Buttercup Elfdancer
I love name generators, those fun little programs where you put in your name and it gives you a new name.
You can get a pirate name (mine's Jelly Legs Anita), fairytale name (that's how I became Buttercup Elfdancer), or a very British name (I'm Chelsea Gladstone.) The pen name generator dubbed me Cassandra Pennyfeather.
You can also get a wolf name, vampire name, dragon name and superhero name.
