Shopko Grand Opening set |
|
October 1, 2016 |
Shopko has announced that it will open a new
Shopko Hometown store located at 6355 Main
Street on October 14. Shopko Hometown provides
local residents a convenient new
community-focused shopping experience that
features essential name-brand items.
Shopko Hometown combines Shopko’s strong
reputation for health services and customer
service with a broad and dynamic offering of
national brands and private label brands at a
great value. Product offerings include clothing,
home furnishings, toys, consumer electronics,
seasonal items and lawn and garden products –
all in attractive, well laid out, easy-to-shop
store format.
“The excitement surrounding our grand opening
isn’t just about the products we sell, it’s
about making life easier for the customers we
are privileged to serve,” said Peter McMahon,
Shopko CEO. “It’s about the stuff that counts –
the essentials that help people get ready for
work or school or to enjoy the weekend with
family and friends.”
A special grand opening event, highlighted by a
$2,500 check presentation to Bonners Ferry High
School by the Shopko Foundation, will take place
at 7:45 a.m. All residents are invited to join
the Shopko team and community leaders for the
event. For those who can’t wait for the grand
opening celebration, the store will be open to
customers starting on October 2.
“At Shopko Hometown, we understand that we’re
simply part of the larger community,” said
McMahon. “That’s why we support local
organizations, such as schools and 501(c)(3)
organizations, that are vital to the well-being
and future growth of the community.”
The first 100 customers in line will receive a
free $10 Shopko gift card. A number of prizes
will also be given out through “register to win”
events. Customers will also be encouraged to
sign up for Shopko’s loyalty program to receive
exclusive mailers, $10 off on their birthday and
special email announcements and offers.
Every customer who uses their loyalty member
card on the day of the grand opening will be
entered into a drawing for a $1,000 shopping
spree. Refreshments will be served inside the
store.
The store will be open daily from 8 a.m. to 10
p.m. The pharmacy will be open Monday – Friday
from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday 9 a.m. to 5
p.m., and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
