President's Day Weekend Sales Event - Pick Your Discount!

I've always loved studying American History. One of my favorite president's by far is Abraham Lincoln - there was a sort of sadness to him, a true hero I guess. And I couldn't be happier that our current President is acknowledging what a man Lincoln was and what he did for this country! I hope that I can add President Obama to my list of favorites as well. He's certainly got his work cut out for him. God Bless the USA!!

I found these facts about Lincoln on a blog titled "Leading Little Hearts Home" and thought is was perfect to share today with all of you and maybe you can share them with your family.

Facts about Lincoln:

Lincoln was almost entirely self educated and became a lawyer although he never attended college.

Lincoln is credited with preserving the Union during the Civil War as well as beginning the process to end slavery in the United States.

Lincoln is remembered for his strong character and dependence on God's wisdom.

President Lincoln's domestic policies included his support for the Homestead Act allowing poor people from the East to acquire land in the West.

Lincoln also signed the National Banking Act which established a national currency as well as created a network of national banks.


Okay, so onto the Sales Event! We are doing a pick your discount weekend starting today! Each day the discount will increase based on the calendar date - for example today's discount is 13% off because it is February 13th, Tomorrow...will be 14% and so on. The special will run through Monday, February 16th - which will of course be the largest discount of 16% off offered this long weekend.

If you are a gamblin' girl...(or guy, we don't discriminate here...LOL) you can certainly wait until Monday to grab your most wanteds. Someone may not have already picked them up, and you'll enjoy a few more dollars worth of savings. If you're not the gamblin' kind...you might want to shop early.

To take advantage of the weekends discounts simply type in the following code(s) for the correspoding day:

Friday, Feb. 13th use ABE13
Saturday, Feb. 14th use ABE14
Sunday, Feb. 15th use ABE15
Monday, Feb. 16th use ABE16

Each code will be valid only on the actual day of the discount. For example, you won't be able to use ABE16 today and so on. Be sure to type the code exactly as it appears (you can always cut and paste it, too) as the code is case sensitive.

Happy President's Day - Weekend!

The Flu Bug Hit Hard

Last month we were hit hard by a flu bug. This wasn't just ANY flu bug - certainly the worst one we've seen in years. It hit my father first and my mom, then my two year old, then me. It managed to then move onto my three older children and my spouse. Then, it hid out for a couple days and hit my sister and her family while they were on Christmas vacation. What a bummer!

After we were all done "getting sick" we still felt really weak and just sick to our stomachs for weeks after. This year was definitely the worst round of flu I have seen in my adult life. My father, who seemed to have brought it to share with the rest of us, was the only one in the family to receive the FLU SHOT. Hmmm....

We hope that you all managed to avoid getting sick this season. But, if you happened to fall ill with this pesky flu bug...we hope that you are soon on the mend and back to 100% soon!

We felt we should touch base with our customers and give a little insight as to why there wasn't a Day 12 of Holiday Deals last month, in case some of you felt you were left hanging in wait. We'll be sure to make it up to you all this month...so stay tuned.

We had so much fun with all the contests and discounts and dealing with all of our new customers. We hope you all enjoyed your holidays with your loved ones and we sincerely hope that you have a wonderfully Happy New Year.

Until Next Time,
