    Pop 45 CountdownMoment #22: The Case of the Forgotten Gift Certificate We've always sold a LOT of Gift Certificates, especially around the holidays! We know many of you are opening one of our famous, colorfully-illustrated Gift Certificate envelopes TODAY! Sometimes, the friends and family of collectors and pop culture enthusiasts can't figure out exactly WHAT to buy for their geeky giftee, but they DO know That's Entertainment will have the things they love. In fact, most collectors always have a mental (if not written) list of cool items they WOULD buy if they had the spare cash, so they usually waste no time redeeming one of our Gift Certificates! USUALLY...!In July of 2014, a customer walked up to our counter with his selection and put down a That's Entertainment Gift Certificate. The cashier hadn't seen one in this very plain style, and as he examined it more closely, he noticed the address was wrong. It read, "That's Entertainment, 151 Chandler St., Worcester Massachusetts." Then he noticed it was dated from 1989-- twenty-five years prior, and before the cashier had even been BORN! A little baffled, he called over the Assistant Manager, Sierra, who sorted out that the Gift Certificate was legitimate but had been bought at our OLD location as a Christmas gift a quarter of a century earlier, and the recipient had subsequently put it into a drawer and forgotten about it! So we happily accepted it!When Sierra told Ken about it the next day, he thought the whole story would make an amusing little Facebook post... and when the folks at MassLive saw his post, they thought it would make an interesting local human-interest article... and when the ASSOCIATED PRESS saw that article on the proverbial "slow news day," they picked it up and sent it out to clients WORLDWIDE!!We thought the amazing part of the story was that someone had WAITED 25 years to redeem it! The MEDIA thought the amazing part was that a business ACCEPTED it after all that time! The next morning, two radio shows called! A local TV news station came in for an interview, and then a Boston TV station rolled in! We checked the internet and saw that the AP story had been picked up by news stations literally around the globe, one after the other.We loved the attention, of course, but we didn't really understand all the fuss! Sierra had aptly summarized our feelings on the matter when she said, "When we say it never expires, we really mean it."To find out more about my life in comics, visit my blog at: mylifewithcomicbooks.blogspot.com/.../my-life-with...Did you ever receive a That's Entertainment Gift Certificate?To read news coverage on this story, please go to the below URL:www.foxnews.com/us/massachusetts-pop-culture-store-accepts-25-year-old-gift-certificate-from-loya... #comics #comicshopnews #thatsentertainment #thatsentertainmentpop45countdown ...
