Small Business Saturday & Buy Local Week

Buy 1 Get 1

Buy one piercing, get one free. One piercing is all you really want? Bring a friend and let them get the other piercing. $20 off Surface Dermals. Jewelry not included with piercings and must be purchased at time of piercing to receive the special. Jewelry is included with Surface Dermals, limited to stock on hand. No rain checks. Not valid with other offers. Free Piercing and discounted Surface Dermals must be performed on 11/26/2011.


It's that time of year again! A common sight on Black Friday is hordes of people lined up in front of chain stores with wallets open wide, looking for terrific deals. Put on your "local economist" glasses and you may see it in a new light: the pipelines of chain store commerce pumping all of that money out of the communities made up of the hard-working people that earned it, right back to their corporate headquarters. But hey, cheap gadgets!

So what can you do? How about skipping the long lines and spending your money on unique items from local businesses! Not only will your gifts be fresh and original, you will be supporting the local businesses that in turn support our community.

BUY LOCAL 11/25/11 to 12/04/11

It's Movember, the month formerly known as November, which is dedicated to growing moustaches to raise awareness and funds for men's health issues; specifically cancers affecting men. To show our support for the men in our lives, we Created a MO team.


On Movember 1st, our guys will start with a clean-shaven face. For the rest of the month, these selfless and generous men, known as Mo Bros, groom, trim and wax their way into the annals of fine moustachery. Supported by the women in their lives, Mo Sistas, Movember Mo Bros raise funds by seeking out sponsorship for their Mo-growing efforts


Why are we so passionate about men's health?  
*we have lost loved ones to cancer
*1 in 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime
*A man is diagnosed with prostate cancer every 2.2 minutes
*1 in 2 men will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime 
*24% of men are less likely to go the doctor compared to women

Funds raised will help make a tangible difference to the lives of others. Through the Movember Foundation and their men's health partners, the Prostate Cancer Foundation and LIVESTRONG, Movember is funding world-class awareness, research, educational and support programs, which would otherwise not be possible.
