The Seattle-area drug store said the event, which runs March 21 to April 3 at select locations in King, Pierce and Snohomish counties, will include health clinics, free beauty "mini makeover" demonstrations, hair-styling tips, and product samplings ranging from cosmetics to specialty foods and candy.
Health screenings will also include mobile digital mammography screenings, which began this week and are being offered through April 8 at 16 Bartell stores in tandem with Evergreen Hospital Medical Center.
Bartell said it will provide health screenings at 10 stores at no charge or at discounted fees.
