Happy Blues
Now that blueberries are finally affordable, it's time to stock up. Flash freeze them by pouring clean, dry blueberries in a single layer on a cookie sheet. freeze overnight and then package in freezer bags. They won't clump together and you'll have plenty of this luscious fruit when the prices go back up this winter.

Let's work to get the word out: friends don't let friends shop retail!
...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 3 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!
