Pu Purchases chases What t was s sa said id

The manager of the Cell Fashion store at Fox Run Mall, a store that sells cell phone cases (like the one shown) emailed us after receiving a letter:

“I'm glad you came to me with concerns regarding the printed cases with marijuana leaves. We thought that it is not a big issue… but as some group member came and explained about the impacts and messages that might have some negativity on kids. I take it in positive way. I really appreciate for your concern towards my store… As you suggested not to sell for kids under 18 , we will do that and we will check ID...”

Step #5: Prepare & Deliver Letters to Stores
