Some of you have been asking about our "Customer Appreciation/Small Business Saturday" Sale. The answer to this point has been "yes, we are having it, we just don't know how it will look." Well, Ed and I just listened to the Governor's special announcement (Sunday, Nov. 15) and as a result we have had to make some difficult decisions. We hope the decisions we have made work for all of you. Please read the following carefully and pass the word.
As a result of the virus situation, we are going to have a change of plans for our "Customer Appreciation/Small Business Saturday" Sale. In order to have the sale, we are going to try to compromise on hours and how people can come.
First, we are going to stretch the sale from 2 days to 6 days. We are also going to extend our hours for those days. The sale will take place on two consecutive weekends. (See the days and hours below.) Second, we are going to close to the public and be open by appointment only on those days. We know this will be inconvenient for some but we believe it is either this or just cancel the sale all together. We do not want to cancel because you, our customers, have been so supportive this year and we want you to benefit from the sale.
Read the guidelines below:
We are going to close to the general public on Wednesday (Nov. 25), Friday (Nov. 27) and Saturday (Nov. 28) and be open by appointment only for the sale. It will be similar for the next weekend. We will close to the public on Thursday (Dec. 3), Friday (Dec. 4) and Saturday (Dec. 5) and be open by appointment only.
We are allowed to have 10 customers in the store at a time and we will try to keep those guidelines
Appointments will be one hour time slots. You will be required to wear a mask and practice social distancing. Specific days and hours are listed below.
Wednesday - Nov. 25 - hours will be 10am to 3pm. Friday - Nov. 27 - hours will be 10am to 5pm. Saturday - Nov. 28 - hours will be 10am to 4pm
THEN the next week we will close to the public on Thursday (Dec. 3), Friday (Dec. 4) and Saturday (Dec. 5) and be open by appointment only for the sale. Appointments will be one hour time slots. You will be required to wear a mask and practice social distancing. Specific days and hours are listed below.
Thursday - Dec. 3 -hours will be 10am to 5pm Friday - Dec. 4 - hours will be 10am to 5pm Saturday - Dec. 5 - hours will be 10am to 4pm. ("First Saturday" event is cancelled.)
You can begin calling and making appointments today, Nov. 16, at 10am. Call 989 835-8761.
We know this is not ideal, but it is the best we could come up with. We do want to honor the sale because you have given us so much support this year. By setting appointments we hope to still have the sale AND keep our customers safe.
