GLT Gift Certificate

The Holidays are here again and this year we're doing things a little differently!
Every $50 spent on GLT Gift Certificates = 1 entry in our raffle for a $150 GC and GLT merch package!

$50 = 1 entry
$100 = 2 entries
$150 = 3 entries

And so on!

Give the gift that can’t be lost or stolen! (Tattoos, that is. A gift card can be lost or stolen, so hang on to it!)

Gift certificates available here - shipped or curbside pickup options.

 

We also want to show some support for a few of our favorite local small businesses offering unique holiday gifts. They offer a multitude of gift ideas and most offer delivery or curbside pick-up!
