WE DID IT! In September we released our four new locations, and our goal to have them all open for Christmas, stamp that job DONE!! The Just A Buck staff has opened 4 new stores in only 3 weeks!

Inventory rolled in and the New York location 827 Suite 4 Route 82,Hopewell Junction, NY opened Tuesday, November 25. The following day, Wednesday November 26 the New Jersey store located at 1930 State Highway Route 88, Laurel Square Shopping Center, Brick, NJ, opened for business. Finally on black Friday November 25, the last of the series of four stores opend at 220 Indian River Rd. in the Christmas Tree Shop Plaza at
Orange, CT.
The goal was for all 4 stores to open by Thanksgiving, and that very difficult mission was accomplished! Kudos to our construction coordinator "Big Al", as well as the buying staff, and our very tired opening team, for a job well done. Watch for more new stores opening in the coming months.

We are proud to announce we have moved our corporate offices to a building we purchased at 563 Temple Hill Road in New Windsor NY. The building, built in 1941, was purchased in June, and received a complete interior renovation. Refinished hardwood floors are a main feature of the new office and get high compliments. "The purchase was a good deal and came at the right time for us", said Steven Bakst, President of Just A Buck, "our new facilities has a nice charm and accentuates the family type of atmosphere our business is built on", adds Bakst. The location is 1 mile from Stewart International Airport, which will prove to be much more convenient to our franchisees visiting from out of state. It is also very convenient for Product vendors with its close proximity to the New York State Thruway.

Congratulations to our newest franchisees for opening their store in Northvale, NJ on Tuesday 11/19/02. They report a steady flow of customers and overwhelmingly positive feedback. Glad to have you aboard, and glad you'll be able to satisfy your customers Holiday needs.
Tomorrow 11/20/02 is the big day for the franchise located in Derby CT. These two brothers are excited and just a bit nervous on the eve before their opening. They've picked out a great location on Pershing Ave., and have worked hard to stock the store with the products their customers need and desire. They're no stranger to Just A Buck. One of the partners worked in a NJ Just A Buck franchise as a manager. He decided to open his own in Connecticut with his older brother. Our best wishes go out to them.
If you live in the neighborhood of these two stores stoip in and congratulate them!!
Construction has begun for the next franchise. Tampa Florida hopes to open in time for the Holiday rush. Early December is the goal.
