What is it? It is an online store ran by FanCloth, which is a much larger company that deals on the national scale so they are able to offer more items at cheaper rates, including some name brand items.
There are 29 items available in the online store but the catalog only shows 24 so please check out the store!
When: The store goes live Friday, January 31, 2020 and will stay open until Friday February 14, 2020. The store is on a timer so the store will close at a specific time and no late sales will be accepted so please order right away.
