This event benefits local children served by Community Partners of Dallas, and once again our DC employees worked hard to make sure it was a tremendous success! Through a nacho sale, bake sale, and Frito pie sale, we were able to raise over $1,600 and donate 46 Easter baskets for the children! Just like last year, Distribution Coordinator Larry M.

We received a variety of answers (including some well-known figures and some less-so) and you can check them out below: Lacy Cannaday,

  • Twice the Reason to Celebrate!

    Last week we were named one of the FORTUNE 100 Best Companies to Work For AND we hosted our traditional We Love Our Employees Day celebration on the same day! We marked the occasion with fun parties at our Home Office, Distribution Center and in our store locations. It was day filled with hugs, laughter, tasty treats, and happy music, and we carried on our tradition of writing sweet notes of appreciation to each other on brightly-colored Post-Its and placing them all over our walls. We also set
