Because the sushi chefs, marble manicure palace, and fruit-stocked smoothie bar just weren't festive enough, the Financial District's brand-new blinged-out Duane Reade plans to spend tomorrow morning teasing customers with the chance to win one million dollars. From 11am to 1pm tomorrow, July 12, the chain will celebrate its 50th anniversary with a party at its Wall Street location. Perks include freebies, special offers, the celebrity presence of DJ Clue and Darryl Strawberry, and a giveaway of 50 pairs of Mets tickets.

They'll also let one contest winner select from an array of 50 mystery bags, each of which contains a check. One check is for $1 million, but the rest are for $5000, which is really not such a terrible consolation prize.
