Each year ACE Hardware and ACE Office have 'Midnight Madness'. They open the stores from 7pm-midnight, and offer 15% off the marked price of everything in the store. And if you spend more than $20 you get a t-shirt, hat or canvas bag. They have to employ extra staff to control the crowds. Only in Pohnpei.
The police even turn up help with the car parking.
Looks like the Boxing Day sales in Australia. So much smarter to do it before Christmas.....
Our buddy Bill helps run ACE Hardware, I'm sure he just shakes his head in amazement.
Only in Pohnpei.
The girls even wrap your purchases if you want. Should have brought all the stuff from home.....
After a quick stop at the ACE's I headed to the Rusy Anchor for the 'End of the World' party. Well we're still here, some probably wished they weren't the next day though.
