Adult-Only Easter Egg Hunt!

curiositiesantiques — Tue, 02 Apr 2013 16:11:31 +0000

Hey there, antiquers! We hope you all had a great Easter weekend with your family and friends!

As a continued celebration of Easter, we are hosting an Adult Only Easter Egg Hunt this weekend, APRIL 6th!

Vendors will be donating items from their booths for door prizes. Each prize will be numbered and numbers will be placed inside plastic Easter eggs and hidden all over the store. When a customer finds an egg, they win that prize. Each person can win only one prize, so if the egg that you find isn’t for a prize you want, you can trade it to another person or re-hide the egg and search for another one!

Here is the table of goodies you could win!

We hope to see you there!
