Recycle! Reuse! Reduce! REWARD!

Reward! Do you have extra plastic hangers (the kind with metal swivel hooks) or large clear vinyl/plastic bags with zippers on them? If so, you can bring them to the store and receive 25 cents store credit for each one we accept. We are especially looking for child-sized hangers right now. Reusable bags are now available at the counter so if you have extras, bring them in to help keep our supply available. They include good condition shopping bags as well as canvas and vinyl ones. We are also accepting packaging materials like styrofoam peanuts and bubble wrap. It's great to recycle those items and keep them out of the landfill!
