Each of the four local thrift
stores decked their windows creatively with various Christmas
decorations and let shoppers vote for their favorite display. All
the ballots were combined after closing, and the four stores offered
one lucky winner $40 worth of thrift store gift certificates for the
holiday season.
Freesmeier was very excited to discover she had won the prize.
"I almost didn't make it out to the stores on Saturday because of
the busy holiday season," she said. "I'm so glad I decided to fit it
into my schedule!"
Ruth's husband is Dr. Freesmeier, a chiropractor in Lincoln.
New Beginnings Thrift Shoppe received the most votes for their
window display.
Katie Alexander, manager of New Beginnings said: "We are very
honored and humbled at the response from our shoppers. We are so
thankful to partner with other great stores like Mission Mart, Pink
Shutter and Goodwill. It was such a fun promotion and we cannot wait
to work with them again."
