https://rvanews.com All the news, none of that gross newsprint feel Tue, 10 Nov 2020 02:23:10 +0000 en-US https://rvanews.com/features/fourth-of-july-sales/19313?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=RSS&utm_campaign=RSS+Readership Wed, 01 Jul 2009 10:00:32 +0000 Valerie Catrow http://rvanews.com/?p=19313 <p style = "text-align:center"></p><p>We all know the economy is just kind of pitiful right now. The majority of us are doing what we can to cut back when necessary. But, ladies and gentlemen, we *do* need to bite the bullet and jump for those bigger-ticket items from time to time, if not for our own sanity/pampering, but also for the greater good. And what better way to celebrate our great nation's birthday than to pump up her economy?</p><p>I'm not talking Cadillacs or vacation homes here. I'm talking things you wouldn't normally buy, but could be convinced if someone names the right price. So, take a gander at some of the discounts around town during the Fourth of July weekend...</p><h2><a href="http://www.ladiff.com">LaDiff</a></h2><p>Most of us don't have the luxury of dropping cash all willy-nilly on furniture. So, if you're looking to upgrade your interiors, <a href="http://www.ladiff.com/">LaDiff</a> is making this the weekend to do it. Their sale prices start at 10% off AND there is some kind of secret being revealed only to those who show up at the store. Combine that with the possibility of FINALLY getting your paws on one of their coveted lamps or sofas (among other things) and you've got an undeniable reason to spend at least part of your time down there this weekend.</p><p class="note"><a href="http://www.ladiff.com/">LaDiff</a><br />125 South 14th Street<br />804-648-6210</p><h2><a href="http://www.poshbellyboutique.com/index.html">Posh Belly</a></h2><p>It seems like everyone either *is* pregnant or knows someone who is. And being some who recently birthed a person, I clearly remember what a challenge it can be to find decent maternity clothes that don't require you to tap into the yet-to-be-born wee one's college fund. So, if you're looking, <a href="http://www.poshbellyboutique.com/index.html">Posh Belly</a> is running quite the lovely sale on Friday: Purchase any summer dress, t-shirt, shorts, capris, bathing suits, underthings or children’s summer clothes and get a 2nd one of equal or lesser value at 50% off. Not bad, preggos, so head on out.</p><p class="note"><a href="http://www.poshbellyboutique.com/index.html">Posh Belly</a><br />1350 Gaskins Road<br />804-740-7674<br />(closed July 4th)</p><h2><a href="http://www.pinkstore.com/">Pink</a></h2><p>Ok, so some of you probably *aren't* pregnant, and there's a great option out there for you, too. I'm sure most of you ladies are familiar with <a href="http://www.pinkstore.com/">Pink</a>.
