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."

If you’re in the market for a new sofa or mattress, Mitch Reeves, who works in sales at 16 Cents, 3 Shoes, & 5 Socks, will greet you with a friendly smile and great conversation.

“Every person has a story. There’s an exchange every time you have a conversation with someone. It’s good to meet with people and perhaps sell some furniture in the process. We have such a laid-back atmosphere. We might sit down with a customer and talk for an hour before we talk about furniture,” said Mitch Reeves.

After a career in car sales, Mitch applied to work for 16 Cents in December. As Mitch will tell you, he appreciates the company’s core values and the faith-based leadership of the owner, Jason McSteen. Mitch appreciates his job because it also allows him time to dedicate to his church.

“I want to know Christ. That’s the center of my life,” said Mitch.

Mitch is also an Army Veteran, having served for four years. Thank you for your service, Mitch! We’re so glad you’re part of our family!
