LUBBOCK, Texas — A Texas jewelry store will hold its annual "Shotgun Wedding Sale" starting Thursday and ending Saturday.
Thacker Jewelry in Lubbock is offering a gift certificate for a shotgun or rifle at local gun store LSG Tactical Arms with each purchase of an engagement ring over $2,000.
Owner Joe Thacker gave some insight on the promotional event, now in its third year:
<em>"The idea, of course, is the wordplay and the old shotgun wedding. Not going back to the negative connotation, playing off of that and it's been a lot of fun. We had a lot of people participate and this year we've even gotten into it more."</em>
You can RSVP for the sale here. If you can't make it to Texas in time, put this on your calendar for next year.
