Factory Outlet, formerly Anabel’s Thunderbird Paints, at 2531 Broadway was having a grand opening. There were free refreshments and door prizes, and even a drawing for enough paint to paint your house inside and out.
Extra! Extra! Shoppers were advised to cancel all plans and head for Jack’s Furniture on Highway 99 No., Marysville. The business was having a quitting business liquidation sale. Great deals could be had on country sofas, loveseats, oak libraries, white brass daybed and much more.
