And no one is quiet at all, not even a mouse. The shops are bustling, restaurants are hopping and the Shop Tart’s children are all cracked out on Christmas cookies and chocolate in preparation for the big day. Christmas is on Thursday this year - in case you hadn’t heard - which turns the whole week into a big party. After all, there are only two work days before Christmas Eve and one of them is already over. There’s only one day between Christmas and the weekend, so that’s a wash. The Shop Tart hereby grants you one full week of vacation. Enjoy! The Shop Tart sure is…
Last night, she had a glass of wine with her darling husband at Gervais and Vine after a quick trip to Gourmet Shop for biscuit cutters (don’t ask). She ran into the always-adorable AnnaBelle LaRoque, who was on her way to a party and looking for an appetizer (salami, cheese, honey-roasted peanuts and crostini - yum!) The quick glass of wine turned into another when her fab food-loving friend Tracie from San Francisco arrived. The Shop Tart is looking forward to her family’s annual Christmas Kick-Off Cocktail Party tonight. But she has a teeny, tiny bit of shopping to do beforehand…
In other news…
- Correction: Revente’s Winter Clearance Sale starts the day after Christmas, December 26th. Since the Shop Tart granted you that day as vacation, you’ll have time to go!
- Simply Savory will be open as follows for the rest of the week: today from 10 am to 7 pm, tomorrow 10 am to 4 pm, Thursday and Friday closed and Saturday from 10 am to 6 pm. Simply Savory is a great spot for a last-minute gift basket or bottle of wine.
- Tullulah is closing forever tomorrow. Send her off in style with a closing party from 10 am to 3 pm on Christmas Eve. Enjoy snacks, Champagne and major deals on anything left in the store, including fixtures.
- Kicks will give you a 20% discount on your purchase when you bring an item to donate to Children’s Garden. Also, they will still wrap and deliver your gift. No time to choose a gift? Go to their website, choose a pair and call the store to have it wrapped and delivered, all from the comfort of your own office (is there a way to forward this information to everyone’s husband? Particularly the Shop Tart’s?) Can’t decide? Gift cards are a great option!
- Lola of Lexington is offering 30% off Fall and Holiday and 60% off selected merchandise. Even if you live downtown, Lola is worth a trip. it’s not too far and they have some fun stuff!
- Max and Prissy is offering 30% off everything in the store and an extra $10 off for every $100 spent. So, if $100=.7x then x=$142.86 and if $100=$90, then $142.86=$90. And 90 is 63% of 142.86, so you get 37% off! Algebra is the best*!
- Shop Tart Tip: Head to the Hyundai Market on Decker Boulevard for cool stocking stuffers, including much-beloved Pocky Chocolate.
- All holiday merchandise at Burlap will be 50% off beginning Friday, December 26th. They will be closed today, tomorrow and Thursday. Beginning January 1st, Burlap will be processing orders online. The site will feature invitations, stationery, gifts and much more.
- The Greek-themed specials at Gervais and Vine were magnifique last night. They have a wine-tasting tonight which is probably full, but call in the afternoon and check for cancellations if you’re interested.
Happy Shopping and don’t forget to tell them you read it on the Shop Tart!
* And the Shop Tart is sure someone will email soon if her personal Algebra is not the best. Anyone? Corrections welcome!
