This Thursday is a very big day for us. It is one we've been looking forward to for about two months now - the grand opening of the newest 99 Cents Only store, in La Verne, CA! Now we don't live anywhere near La Verne (35 miles away actually), but 99 Cents Only stores make a huge deal of their grand openings and we can't wait to be part of it! Specifically, the first 9 people in line for the Thursday morning opening will be receiving 99 CENT IPOD NANOS! Yep, you read it correctly, an 8gb ipod for under $1.
We will be camping out in front of the store starting at about 7:30am tomorrow morning - just over 24 hours before the store's grand opening. As of now, I am a nervous wreck because it will be a huge disappointment to show up so early and not be one of the first 9 people in the line. We will be updating our twitter/twitpics regularly so you can track our progress and see how the 24 hour camp out goes! Past openings have drawn hundreds of people and featured news stations and marching bands- and this one will be doing the same.
We've obtained a press release from 99 Cent Only's PR team and are listing all the details about the event and the insanely cheap giveaways below. Enjoy!

They're nuts, right? I wish we lived closer to La Verne because I would probably be there every morning next week. Let us know if you plan on heading out there yourself on Thursday (or Wednesday afternoon?) and enjoying the opening festivities! Or if you plan on hitting up some of the deals later in the week.
I hope we survive the cold tomorrow night...it will be worth it if I have an almost free ipod in my hand on Thursday morning!
