Orr's Market
A unique plan to attract bargain seeking market-goers was announced today by Orr's Eldorado Market at 320 North Imperial avenue. By the plan outlined by Roy Orr, manager of the market, purchasers will be given coupons for the value of goods they have bought. These coupons may be used to bid in articles at an auction to be held each month. Only the coupons are necessary to bid in the premiums, which are now on display at the market. Each prospective bidder, as he enters the auction, will be given an auction slip upon which he will write his bid for the article he desires. Should the bidder fail to get the article, he may retain the coupons and use them at the next auction to bid again.
