By Stephanie MacLellan Advertising Feature When Ivica Jukica wanted to open a window store, he decid ed to take his showroom on the road. The result was a unique concept known as The Travelling Window Store Corp. Window shopping has never been so easy. This state-of-the-art mobile showroom, a custom-built truck designed by Ivica himself, is fitted with moving walls complete with full size operating win dows, a six-foot patio door and a front entrance door. "When you look at small window samples that other win dow companies bring to you for a demonstration, you have to imagine what the product will look like in your wall," says Ivica, the owner and operator. "We bring the showroom to you, with full size products in a wall-like setting, as it would be in your home. This not only shows the quality and construction of the product, but also our installation techniques." The benefits of having a showroom on wheels are obvious. "It's great for seniors and for people who have little spare time," says Ivica. Besides convenience and 17 years of industry experience, The Travelling Window Store features three different lines of high performance windows for optimal energy efficiency and to fit into everyone's budgets. "We sell windows with thermal insulating barriers and different glass options that improve insu lation and cut down energy costs. Some of our products are even better insulated than the walls of your home," explains Ivica. The windows are made to order using the measurement and styles of each individual home, and the installation once completed, it looks as if it was there the entire time. Part of their current promotions includes the chance to win $800 in travel money, courtesy of SuperDeals Travel Service (Glen Abbey Plaza). Anyone who arranges for a free in-home consultation (with no obligation) will be entered in a draw to win the travel dollars (draw date Aug. 31st). They also offer easy payment options such as no payments and no interest for 90 days (o.a.c.) from the date of installation, or extra discounts for prepayment. Another regular feature is FREE Low E and Argon Gas insulated glass units on all window orders. To arrange for your free personal viewing, call 905-827-3331, (You can find The Travelling Window Store next weekend at the Oakville Lifestyle Home Show in the Glen Abbey Rec. Centre on April 16th to 18th). Serving O akville Since 1974 C U RR EN T POW ER M ACHINERY IN C. 1661 L a k e s h o re R d .W .
