WICHITA FALLS, Texas (TNN) - People are making their way to stores for after Christmas and end of the year sales.
The days following Christmas people are shopping sales, including those who received money as their gift.
One store is hoping people will stop by so that they can make room for next year.
“We try to use the sale to get rid of the things that we are hoping we won’t have to stock because we can’t put everything in storage,” said John Beer, co-owner of Encore the Christmas Store.
For the first time in recent memory, a new contractor will remove snow from downtown Mt. Pleasant.
City commissioners unanimously approved a bid from Green Scene Landscaping to remove snow from downtown sidewalks, the 12 downtown parking spaces and parking lots after former contractor Norm Curtiss informed city officials in November that he could no longer do the job.

City Manager Nancy Ridley told commissioners that Curtiss, owner of Downtown Discount, provided the service for at least 15 years.

City officials sent out bids last month, expecting prices would be higher because of Curtiss likely lower price and the late timeline, Ridley said.
