We've heard so many good things about Metroplitan Market and as we only live 1 mile away, we can't wait for it to open!! Inside our bag, we found your flyer to enter this contest, along with some great coffee samples, luna bar sample, flyers, and some vitamin C packets. As we were leaving, I overheard one of the greeters that presented our gift bag tell the other nice greeters that my "mom was so cute." That blessed me!
