To celebrate their recent grand opening, Brilliant Nail Spa is offering 20% off services for the month of June.

Maui Whitening opened on May 18, 2015. The store offers affordable laser teeth whitening. Owner Tracy Wheeler said, “We offer professional teeth whitening sessions at a fraction of the cost of what you would pay to have your teeth whitened at other locations.”

Food Stores

Restaurant Depot, 3901 Gateway Centre Boulevard, Cary
We toured the Restaurant Depot last week and were surprised by its size! You’ll see the large warehouse peeking up over trees on Aviation Parkway, and, inside, you’ll find bulk foods and cooking equipment designed for restaurants. With locations in 31 states, the Depot focuses on the needs of independent foodservice operators and offers free membership.
