 Deb's Birthday is Thursday!
Since Deb gets younger with each year, she's asking for School Supplies that can be donated. Bring school supplies ($5 value) by the shop from 9/5- 9/12 & you'll get to dig deep into our Goodie Bag for something special! (In-store only)
There are many under-privilidged children attending Quitman schools who need basic supplies: crayons, notebook paper, pencils, rulers, etc. and would appreciate any kindness we could show toward them. So please help us make their school experience better.

On the Lighter Side
A student called up his Mom one evening from his college and asked her for some money, because he was broke.
His Mother said, "Sure, sweetie. I will send you some money. You also left your economics book here when you visited two weeks ago. Do you want me to send that up too?"
 "Uhh, oh yeah, O.K." responded the kid.
So his Mom wrapped the book along with the checks up in a package, kissed Dad goodbye, and went to the post office to mail the money and the book. When she gets back, Dad asked, "Well how much did you give the boy this time?"
"Oh, I wrote two checks, one for $20, and the other for $1,000."
"That's $1020!!!" yelled Dad, "Are you going crazy???"
"Don't worry hon," Mom said, kissed Dad on the on top of his bald head, "I taped the $20 check to the cover of his book, but I put the $1,000 one somewhere between the pages in chapter 15!" |
