Big Bonanza

(Continued from Page 6)

]Jonanza Home Center is the very obr,ious merging of the mcrchandising knowhow of Callner and Kritzer. Jcrry Callner hails lrom Milwaukee. Wisconsin. where hc was active in the managemcnt of Capitol Lumber Compan1.. a big, family-owned retail building material complex which fell victim to the t'r'er-present freeway builders last year. Jerry Kritzt'r. on the other hand. ha-* becn active in tht' manasement of Gem lnternational. a big cliscorrrrt chain. and was manager of Gem's big San Jose outlet lrt'fore joining lorces lvith Callncr. t{itchcll told us, "but I've actually had men and wom('n comc up to me on the floor and thank us {or coming into the Camplrell area with Bonanza."

Although Bonanza and the adjoining shopping center swarm with shoppers each day, manager Ilill Mitchell relies heavill' on advertising too. The lion's share of his ad budget goes into ne\{ispapcr advertising; full page ads in the San Jose Xlercury eacll Fridav brings 'em out by the drovcs over the weekend.

Yes. Bonanza is a sevcn-day a wt'ek operation. 'Ihe store is open and fully staffed 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. cach rveekday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturdays, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each Sunday.

"I never would have believed it before."

Standins back for an ovt'rall look we'd say that Bortunro Home Center is just about as close as Mr. Sears evt,-r got to N[r. Iloebuck and that was a pretty good combination too!
