A Gem of a Sale
Gem started out as a wrapping paper manufacturer and now not only still sells the paper, but all kinds of gifts to wrap up in the paper. They are very good at working with non-profit groups who re-sell for their causes. Right now you can come here for their warehouse clearance sale where they are clearing out some overstocked items. The prices are rock bottom. Hair accessories start at a buck, scarves are $5, Pashmina shawls 3/$25 (reg. $10.00 each) and purses are $30.
In the paper section: parchment paper is $2 per roll or $20 per 500 sheets (buy 10 and get 1 free), waxed paper $2, 8′ wrapping paper rolls 6/$1 (wow), zip lock bags, cello bags, slightly used moving boxes $.25 (and paper for packing).
As if all that wasn’t good enough, there’s also licensed National hockey merchandise: caps, t-shirts, polar pants, hoodies and maybe just right for Mother’s Day or for a teacher’s gift: window herb gardens 2/$15 (reg. 10)
