Winter Merch Sale

Tis the season! by which i mean: winter. by which i mean, the time when people start buying more stuff.  Now it is a little silly that the Holidays have become a time when we pepper-spray each other to get our hands on a $2 waffle-iron (did you read about that?!).  But if you just happen to be buying stuff for people in your life – yourself included, why not get them a Something New album, or an AW Tshirt!  Everything on the store is discounted until January 1. Visit the Avi Wisnia Webstore (now also on FB) and check it out.  Check a few things out! Also, I figure online discounts might encourage more online shopping, which decreases the likelihood that people will get trampled to death in a Walmart sale frenzy (did you read about that?!).
