This is the question a customer asked me while checking out.
ME: No, what makes you think that?
CUSTOMER: I heard a “rumor” that the store is going out of business. (The infamous rumor mill strikes again!)
ME: Could you please assure everyone you talk to that Mountain Treasures is NOT “closing its doors” and is NOT “going out of business”.
After the customer left, I remembered that ONE of our 38 Vendors was closing her booth due to a personal change of plans. She had posted a sign in her booth, “20% off everything … GOING OUT OF BUSINESS”. Thus, the start of the rumor that Mountain Treasures was going out of business. That Vendor did subsequently “go out of business”. Her vacant booth was filled by another Vendor the next day.
Our Vendors come and go for personal reasons. When a booth becomes vacant and a new Vendor moves in, it provides the customer with a whole new shopping experience (new Vendor, new items to see and shop).
Be assured Mountain Treasures is NOT “going out of business” and is NOT “closing its doors”.
This month, Mountain Treasures is celebrating its sixth year in business.
As always, we are open SEVEN days a week from 10am to 5pm each day.
