Through Dec. 31, Mercy Health System’s Rogers Medical Center is offering a discounted package of four laser treatments for only $200. Priced individually, these services would total up to $500. The visits take about 40 minutes with no down time afterward.

Here are the four treatments:

• Visia camera — a picture with this camera will show the condition of your skin below the surface, identifying sun damag, future age spots, broken blood vessels and pore size. We wrote about it last week HERE.
• Microdermabrasion — sloughs off dead skin and cleans out blackheads and pores.
• Aura Laser — shrinks pores, lessens rosacea and evens out skin tone.
• Bonus Treatment — eliminates broken blood vessels on your face.

To schedule your appointment, call 479-338-5555 or stop by Rogers Medical Center and ask for the Holiday Laser Special. Face the New Year with a smile!

You may have already noticed the signs along Walnut Ave. in Rogers, but just in case you didn’t, here’s the scoop: Linens N Things is going out of business - not just the Rogers store but the entire chain. At last check, most of the discounts were only about 10 to 40 percent off regular prices. But keep an eye on this sale, which will likely continue to offer deeper discounts as the final day of business approaches. (No word yet on when that last day will come.)

The day I scoped out the sale, the store was absolutely packed with shoppers. I asked the clerk if the chain was bought out by another company or competitor, but she said it was sold to a liquidation company. So it looks like “everything must go.” If you’re in the market for new sheets, towels, bath accessories, etc., you might want to keep this sale in mind and get there before all the good stuff is gone.

Wolf. Bosch. Thermador. Sub-Zero. Frigidaire. Viking. KitchenAid. These are just some of the brands to look for when you stop by Metro Builders Supply on Thursday to check out the sale prices on stoves, refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, microwaves, washers, dryers or other appliances. This private sale is technically for Metro Builders Supply’s preferred customers, but general manager Dave says we can invite Motherlode mamas to the store’s one-day only Semi-Annual Sale on Thursday, Nov. 6, from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Consider yourself invited.

If you’re in the market for appliances, this is an awesome opportunity to find name-brand appliances at unpublished pricing levels. There are one-of-a-kind specials, scratch and dent, close-out, floor model clearance and warehouse clearance items available. PLUS no interest and no payments for 12 months on everything in the store (with approved credit, of course).

If you’re not able to stop by the store on Thursday, the sale will continue through Friday and Saturday (Nov. 7 & 8).

Metro Builders Supply is between Springdale and Lowell on U.S. 71B next to Lighting Emporium. You do not have to be a builder to shop there. It’s definitely mom-friendly and has a fabulous lay-out showcasing all the new appliances. The sales people know their products and offer great service. And did we mention the prices? Well, they’re always great, but this sale is downright unbeatable.
