Annual Valentine's Day Mattress Winner! We delivered Bailey's brand-new Immunity Queen Size Mattress Set valued at $2,999. She was the lucky winner of our annual Valentine's Day giveaway. "I'm very grateful that they can do this yearly," said Bailey. "It gives people a chance to do something for themselves. Like most parents, I put things on the back-burner if it doesn't involve my kids." Winning the mattress was just what she needed. The past few years have been challenging. "In late 2022, I left a really bad relationship. The majority of my belongings were tossed out or destroyed." Due to a work-related injury, Bailey's been out of work for over a year. After three surgeries, the doctors are unsure if she can return to her position as a medical assistant. "When I saw 16 Cents' Facebook post about the contest, I thought it could be an amazing opportunity to get a new bed," said Bailey. "I needed one but didn't have the funds for it. All our extra money goes straight to the kids." Bailey has been sleeping on an old mattress purchased several years ago and is looking forward to sleeping on the new one. "It was hard to believe we won until 16 Cents messaged me," said Bailey. "I'm looking forward to having a new mattress, let alone a whole new set. It's really special. I feel like this is going to be our year."

Congratulations, Biscuit!!


The two-year-old Corgi mix is our July Pet Bed Giveaway winner.


Owners Vicki Trefry and her husband of 51 years, Tim, picked up Biscuit’s new cozy sleeping spot yesterday from 16 Cents, 3 Shoes, & 5 Socks. 


“It’s a very nice bed, so soft and furry on top,” said Vicki. “It looks like a mattress. My 21-year-old granddaughter says she’d even sleep on it.” The winning photo captures Biscuit mix lying in a dog bed with his body overhanging the sides.“He’s definitely outgrown his dog bed,” laughs Vicki. “We’re thankful to win a new one.”


The couple rescued Biscuit two years ago from her cousin, who thought he was a different breed. “She thought he was a Cocker Spaniel, which is supposed to be hypoallergic, but three of her four great-grandsons ended up being allergic to him,” said Vicky. So, I rescued him from three allergic boys.”


The couple, who met at Riverside High School in Chattaroy, are long-time customers of 16 Cents, 3 Shoes, and 5 Socks. They started shopping when the store first opened its location on Francis.


Again, Congratulations to Biscuit, Vicki, and Tim! We want to thank everyone who sent a photo of their pets.​
