A White Christmas in Wilmington, N.C., is about to turn into green for customers who did their holiday shopping at a local jewelry store. The owner of Perry’s Emporium promised refunds for everything bought at his store between November 26th and December 11th — if more than three inches of snow fell on Christmas Day.
