Gift Wrapping for Relay!

The Magee branch will be gift wrapping Christmas gifts as a fundraiser for Relay. Let us wrap your presents this year. Just think you will not only have free time to spend with your family and friends if you let us wrap your gifts, you will also save money by not having to purchase wrapping paper, tape, tissue paper, ribbons and bows and gift boxes.

All proceeds go toward ACS Relay for Life. Here is the pricelist:

Small gifts--$1.00

Medium gifts--$2.00-$3.00 depending on the size

Large gifts-- $4.00- $5.00 depending on the size

Ex-Large gifts--$6.00 and up depending on the size.

We will provide the paper and ribbons and bows and name cards.

If you have more than one gift that you want wrapped we will make you a deal. Also, if you write a check to the ACS it is tax deductible because it is for charity. If you have questions please contact Jennifer Craft, Debbie Walker, or Janna Stringer at 601.849.2210. We look forward to making your holidays stress free this year!
