COMMERCE, Calif. -- On Lucky Friday the 13th, the first 9 customers at select Texas stores can purchase a Nintendo Wii and Wii Fit combo pack - a $350 value - for only 99C/. That's right, a Nintendo Wii - $249.99 retail value - and the hard-to-find Wii Fit - $89.99 retail value - will be sold for only 99C/, to emphasize that for over 25 years 99C/ Only Stores([R]) has never sold anything for more than 99C/! This special sale will only occur at the Dallas store located at 13444 Preston Road at Alpha Road; the Houston store located at 7639 Westheimer Road at Hillcroft Avenue; and the San Antonio store located at 5464 Walzem Road at Chas Windham Drive.

27 lucky customers will be able to buy a Nintendo Wii - $249.99 retail value - and the hard-to-find Wii Fit - $89.99 retail value - for only 99C/! Wii is not just a gaming console, it's a reason to get together with your friends and family and play today's hottest games. The Wii Fit combines fun and fitness in ways that will have people getting up off their couches, moving around, having fun and maybe even breaking a sweat.

After the Nintendo Wii and Wii Fit, the next 99 customers in each store that day can buy a three-course dinner for four for only 99C/! The three-course dinner for four for only 99C/ includes Dole classic romaine salad and a large bottle of dressing to start the meal; followed by salmon, pasta, pasta sauce and bread for the main course; and topped off with Pillsbury cake mix for the dessert. Included with each 99C/ meal package is a 99C/ Only Stores environmentally-friendly reusable shopping bag. At 99C/ Only Stores([R]) you can regularly buy all of the meal items for a total of less than $8.99. At other grocery stores the same items would cost at least $20.

Given today's rising food prices and the consumer's focus on finding low cost options for quality meals, 99C/ Only Stores is an even better value today than when it opened its first stores in Texas. What was then "Nothing is over 99C/, ever!" is still true today, despite market price inflation over the years. 99C/ Only Stores([R])offers a wide selection of fresh produce, dairy, deli, and gourmet food items. In fact, an independent cookbook that features our store, entitled The 99C/ Only Stores Cookbook, Gourmet Recipes at Discount Prices, was just published in April and has already been featured on television and in the press.

In celebration of 99C/ Only Stores([R])fifth anniversary in Texas, all 99C/ Only Stores in Texas will be selling a full tank of gasoline for only 99C/! Each of the forty-eight 99C/ Only Stores in Texas will hold a raffle every day during the promotion and the winners will be able to buy a $60 gas card for only 99C/! This promotion starts on "Lucky Friday the 13th" of June and runs through July 3rd, 2008.

In appreciation of the five years of loyalty and support from the Texas community, 99C/ Only Stores([R]) will be partnering with local food banks and holding a canned food drive at each of its stores. All proceeds will go to the local food bank which services other agencies within the community.

99C/ Only Stores([R]) is the nation's oldest existing one-price retailer. 99C/ Only Stores([R]) is celebrating over 25 years of selling Everything, Everyday for 99C/ only in its 269 clean, attractively merchandised stores located in California, Texas, Arizona and Nevada.
