Once again, it's time for Shopper's Corner's HALF PRICE SALE! Our already amazingly low prices will be cut in half to help us clear our fall / winter inventory and make way for spring and summer fashions. Not only will you find great deals on cold weather gear such as snow pants, hats and mittens, but you'll find the same 50% off on every item in the store including shirts, pants, baby clothes, scarves, belts and more!
And if half price isn't enough to tempt you, our semi-annual BAG SALE will take place in just over a week. Buy one of our generously sized bags for $5 and fill it to the brim with any items you want. It's a great opportunity to stock up on basics, try something a little edgy, or to purchase for your favorite charity.
Mark you calendar for these fantastic opportunities to save!
Special thanks to the volunteers from 5E, 5S, 1M, KG, 2E, 2S and 5M for their help in the upcoming weeks.
Shopper's Corner is located in the basement of Schofield Elementary at 27 Cedar Street. Walk through the playground toward the back of the school and look for our sign on your left. All proceeds benefit the Schofield PTO!

Wellesley Community Center Creates Grand
Illusion with Special Guest Lyn Dillies rescheduled for February 6.
On
Thursday, February 6, 2014 at 4:00PM, the Wellesley Community Center will tape
another episode of Gil Stubbs’ World of
Magic, featuring special guest magician and illusionist, Lyn Dillies.
Lyn has
performed all over North American and has made many television appearances over
the years. She is regarded in the
entertainment field as the most accomplished female illusionist in the
business. “One of her most notable performances was to
make two live Asian elephants, Ruth and Emily, appear in succession. The event was held outdoors in front of
a live audience for the grand opening of the Buttonwood Park Zoo in her
hometown of New Bedford MA. It took
eight months to prepare for this incredible spectacle and required more than
5,000 square feet of fabric, 300 feet of truss, two cases of red seedless
grapes (the pachyderms' favorite treat) and a little sleight of trunk! “Using
an original concept that took years of planning, Lyn performs her “Magic at the
Symphony” program live with symphonies all around the country including several
performances at Lincoln Center.
This program combines the majesty of classical music with Lyn’s
breathtaking illusions encouraging children to discover the magic of classical
music while experiencing the harmony of her illusions.”
Her
heritage is anchored by magic. Her
great-grandfather, Thomas Wyatt, was an amateur magician and member of the New
Bedford Magic Wand Club, an organization she was to join in her early
teens. While Ms. Dillies’ parents
are not performers, each has gotten into the act by supporting her career. In the early days, mom Loretta acted as
a booking agent and wardrobe manager, while father Calvin built her first
illusion. They shared chauffeur
duties and marveled when their daughter began to drive a large truck to
transport her seven ton show. “I
never would have made it without them,” say Ms. Dillies of her two most ardent
fans. “My family and friends are
the real magic in my life!”

The
show starts at 4:00PM and runs until 5:00PM. Admission is free, but you must register for your seats by emailing
the Wellesley Community Center at info@wellesleycommunitycenter.org
or call the main office at 781-235-4172.
