12/20

Greetings from Carrboro,

I really hadn’t planned to buy my mother water skis. Or that zebra print nose-hair trimmer. Because I realize now, as presents go, they don’t really say “Merry Christmas” as much as “your son needs serious therapy. Again.” Which is not such a heartwarming yuletide meditation. But they were on sale! It’s not my fault! Honestly, it could have been worse. I did linger awhile over a fancy car muffler that was marked down, like, incredibly.

Inept shoppers of the world unite! The promised land is at hand! No more food court samples! Or reliving nightmares about having to sit in Santa’s lap! Can I get a hallelujah?! And somebody pass the Chex mix.

The Acme Gift Certificate. One size fits most. We’ll mail it for you. That day. All you have to do is go to www.acmecarrboro.com/home/gift-certificates and the rest is easy-peasy. The perfect Christmas gift. In case you didn’t know it, holidays are just better here. But if you do want some slightly used water skis, I can make a deal…

And Acme will be open on Christmas Eve, 5pm until 9pm. Home for the holidays is a good thing.

Cheers,

The Staff at Acme
