Morning, everybody!
Sorry this is a little late coming to you this week. I took off the first full weekend in recent memory and spent time with my family- Molly was home from Mississippi to celebrate her 24th (!) birthday and we all traveled back in time to the Renaissance Festival...good times!

Wal-Mart Warning
For the last couple of weeks I've told you about how Wal-Mart charged me twice for the same purchase. Their customer service people were less than helpful and I ended up having to file a fraud affidavit with my bank. Just thought I'd let you know, my money was finally returned to my bank account last Tuesday with no apology or word of explanation. Folks, learn from my experience-- DON'T pay by check at Wal-Mart.
If something goes wrong, you get no help from them.
Waffles!
For Molly's birthday breakfast, we dusted off the waffle iron and made blueberry waffles for the first time in years. I had forgotten how much better the homemade variety is compared to the toaster type. You can freeze leftovers, too.

...and don't forget Senior Discount Day- each Monday, everyone 55 and over gets 30% off their cash purchases.
Since the economy began it's precipitous nosedive, N2N has been doing all of it's buying in exchange for credit in the shop. That move has kept us solvent and in business while so many other shops have folded.
Now, we've decided to stick our toes back into the cash buying waters...
Here's how it works: for cash, we're purchasing only name brand, mall brand and better fashions. We're only taking in-season pieces (spring/summer). They must be in perfect condition and have been bought new less than three years ago.
Just give me a call at the shop (770-534-9070) or on my cell (770-539-1911) I'll need to set up an appointment since I'm currently the only one who is doing the cash buying. I'm giving preference to areas of the shop that have the quickest turn-over in inventory- plus sizes, maternity, men's casual wear, shoes and toddler sizes.
Of course, we're still continuing the store credit buying and the amount we pay is about 30% more than the cash.
Cash or store credit- either way, we all win!
