My aunt shared her coupon mailer photo, sorry it's blurry it was her first time using her phone to take a photo, and on the back of it we now can see that there will be a stacked pumpkin cutout display in stores when the new Pumpkin Festival  floor set happens next week and we are to take our photo in this display and share it on IG for a chance to win the $500 gift card.
