e-Blast

November 10- November 16, 2008

All loose tile is free

Yes, the subject line of this e-Blast is correct and your eyes are not playing tricks on you.  This is because we've decided to focus our efforts on complete boxes of tile and specialty tile (e.g. subway, fireplace, antique, terazzo, terra cotta, hand painted).  All other non-specialty loose tile will be free.  For the time being, this is all the tile still remaining in our tile department.  Any non specialty loose tile we receive in the future will be located in our "free area" adjacent to the store entrance.

All boxed and specialty tile has been relocated to the new racking we set up in front of our cash register.  Once cleaned out, our old tile department will be transformed into our new, expanded, improved and extra special spiffy lighting department.

The CJ Buzz

Just a reminder... effective this coming Monday, November 17th, our hold policy will no longer be in effect.  This has been a difficult decision for us and although the majority of feedback has been positive, some has been negative as well.  Please understand that our goal is to operate Construction Junction in a way that is most beneficial to most customers most of the time.  Let's work together to see how this goes.
