A new sale I've never written about until now

I love it when I hear about a "word of mouth' sale. Now I'm sharing with you.

One sale begets another. At a local sale preview I went to today that is mentioned in this week's Steals+Deals I heard about a cool toy sale. Local toy manufacturer Manhattan Toy, popular for the Barbie alternative dolls called Groovy Girls, is having a sample sale of overstocks and samples from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday, Nov. 20 at 430 1st Av. N., 5th floor, Minneapolis, 612-337-9600.

I've never been to this sale so I can't tell you what kind of discounts to expect. but I'll try to scout it out too.
