Thursday, December 20: It’s on LEN. Spend $25 or more in store and get a free cappuccino at Seb’s on LEN

Friday, December 21: Open late until 10 pm for Guys Night. Lets face it there are probably a lot of people out there which haven’t even started holiday shopping. Most of them are guys. Just saying.
