The CJ Buzz

Our Litterbug Bobblehead promotion is going splendidly.  Shoppers are hunting and redeeming Bobbleheads daily and... saving 20% on their purchases.  This promotion will continue through Friday, September 11th.  Here's a run down...

From September 1st thru the 11th, CJ staff will be hiding 10 Litterbug Bobbleheads throughout CJ’s retail space.  Track down a Bobblehead, bring it to CJ’s cashier when you’re ready to check out and get 20% off your purchase.

The Litterbug Bobbleheads could be hiding in drawers, cabinets, display cases or behind items.  We're going to get creative!  We do promise however that all Litterbugs... ten each day for ten days, will be accessible and within easy reach.  The earlier you arrive... the greater your chances of finding a Litterbug and saving 20% off your purchase.

This is Carrie, one of our favorite customers.  Carrie's holding a Bobblehead and very happy.
