Hi all,
Just wanted to let you all know that my manager has approved that I offer LARP Players/Staff a 10% discount at the Halloween City I work at. It's a seasonal store on Macleod just south of 90th (Across from the A&W, between the Macdonalds and the Co-Op Medical Supply Store) Basically this is Party City's "Business/Organization" discount, with Alliance Calgary as the Business/Organization.
There's a whole section for 'theatrical makeup' (Woochie, Theatre effects... and another company I forget the name of...) which includes things like pointed ears, horns, 'scar tissue', fake 'mouth blood' and such (that I'm sure the plot team would love) Vials of spirit gum are $4 (before discount), which is a LOT cheaper than I usually get it for. Plus there's a lot of costumes and props that might add flair to some character concepts.
The store will be open for business between September 14th and November 2nd. If you are purchasing for LARP-related activities, just ask for the Manager (Robert) and let him know you are with the Alliance Calgary LARP (and if he is having a scatterbrained moment - let him know Justin sent you =Z Though I doubt it'll be a big deal even if Robert's not in - the 10% discount for businesses/organizations seems common enough that any supervisor should be able to apply it I suspect).
(Robert is also a little interested in joining the LARP too, I'm going to show him some of the information and rulebook on Thursday)
