To celebrate the brand’s expansion into Elk Grove, Spencer’s will hold an event in April with giveaways and other goodies for customers, the company said in a Wednesday news release.

Spencer’s opened its first brick-and-mortar storefront in 1963 in New Jersey and has since grown to more than 670 stores across the United States and Canada, according to the company’s website.
“Spencer’s is the ultimate destination to find the latest edgy, outrageous and unique accessories and apparel,” the company said in the release.
The retail chain sells a variety of trendy clothing, accessories, gag gifts and knick-knacks, including novelty T-shirts, hats, backpacks and body jewelry.
Locations also carry home decor, drinkware and sex and wellness items.
Spencer’s is open at 7601 Laguna Blvd. Suite 120, in Elk Grove.
The space, which neighbors a Hallmark stationary store, was formerly occupied by VIVI Fashion.
Spencer’s is hosting a grand opening bash at its Laguna Crossroads location on Saturday, April 12, from 1 to 5 p.m.
According to the release, the first 100 customers who attend the opening will receive $10 gift cards for the store, “along with sweet treats, freebies, giveaways and more.”
