Care to join us tomorrow?

Oh, This One's a Doozy.

Hiya Reader, long time no chat!

I'm writing to you today because, well, we're running one of our Facebook auctions tomorrow.

Wait, wait, wait, hold on. It's cool. It's good! You might like this.

We went a bit overboard with it. Normally, mom goes around and takes pictures for about 35 or 40 lots and we call it good. I looked away for just a minute this time and...

Tomorrow's auction is 88 lots.

Whoops!

You'll find signs, some vintage glassware, toys, pillow covers, Christmas décor, some crystals (yes, we're into crystals now), a couple hockey hats, a whole bunch of fun stuff that we hope you'll check out.

Our Facebook auctions run from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm every Monday. If you take a look tomorrow morning and find things you like, but you aren't able to bid—I get it. Just drop me a line or DM us on our social media accounts (linked at the bottom of this e-mail) with what you're after, plus your max bid.

We'll bid on your behalf and tag you in those bids.

No Facebook account? No problem. We'll still keep you updated.

What about shipping?

Shipping is available if you can't make it here—just keep in mind that it just ain't cheap. We charge $5 per package to cover supplies, then it's whatever Canada Post feels like charging for a tracked packet. It is what it is.

Listings get posted by 8:30 am tomorrow. Follow us on Facebook and join in the fun.

In actual store news:

  • Peace by Chocolate gold bars are back in stock. Hooray! They're the most popular flavour we sell for very good reason (they're delicious).
  • We're figuring out the blog. My question is, what do you wanna read about?
  • Our winter hours start Soon. Christmas Day and Boxing Day will mark our first Monday/Tuesday off, and we'll be closing at 4:00 pm every day starting in the new year. Things go back to normal in the spring.
  • The FINAL Seniors' Days of 2023 will be December 18 and 19! Shoppers 55 or better save the tax on purchases. After that, it's over until next fall.

Thanks for reading, Reader, we'll be in touch again soon. Take care and have a great holiday season. Stay warm!

Kind Regards,

Melissa & Nancy

Yay! Good morning, everyone, and rejoice! It's 9 am, time to check out our Facebook auction! Facebook not your thing, but you're interested in an item that we've listed? Let us know. We'll be happy to work with you. The weather's looking spring-like again but if we wait five minutes we'll see more snow, trust me on this. We will be accepting vendors again soon. Booth space is limited, so if you know someone that's looking for a spot, have them get in touch with us! Prices as follows: 5' x 7'...
