IT'S A LEAP YEAR!

LEAP YEAR SAVINGS
February 29th, 2012
Greetings!

DID YOU KNOW???
Leap Years are needed to keep our calendar in alignment with the Earth's revolutions around the sun. It takes the Earth approximately 365.242199 days (a tropical year) to circle once around the Sun. 

However, the Gregorian calendar has only 365 days in a year, so if we didn't add a day on February 29 nearly every 4 years, we would lose almost six hours off our calendar every year. After only 100 years, our calendar would be off by approximately 24 days!
LEAP YEAR SPECIAL SAVINGS EVENT
Wednesday, February 29, 2012 - ONLY!

Savings from 5% to 29% off entire purchase*

How it works... at checkout, you will draw a ticket from the bowl. Each ticket will be marked with the percentage you will receive off your entire purchase for that day.

*Offer excludes all bags and other promotions.
You don't want to miss this...  remember Leap Year only happens once every 4 years.
