You are in for a real treat if you plan on stopping by this Saturday! We love pampering our valued customers and this is the day we do it all just for You! Since I opened The House Dressing Co. 18 years ago– boy seems like an eternity– I have always hosted a shopping event for our loyal customers. It is the one day that is soooo fun because all of our favourite customers pop in and we get to see them all on one day! It is such a festive day while everyone is in such good spirits getting ready for the season.
Our collection of holiday goodies is at it’s peak! — that’s why we have our shopping day before December hits -while our selection is great offering Savings of 15% store wide on all regular priced items so you can choose anything your heart desires!–and Save of course! Wanna hear a secret? …….. We have a surprise gift with purchase for you too!
But remember it’s one day only on In-stock items only and all items must be paid for on that day. Sorry no Holds permitted. 15% Discount may not to be combined with other offers or sale items.
I am also really looking forward to our Live Musicians who are making their debut in a commercial setting as The Best Darn Christmas Trio in Sidney! Charlotte Elgersma, Desi Barkman, will be singing many, many Christmas carols with Gussie Kooijman on keyboard. You will be thoroughly entertained and leave with holiday carols dancing round in your head.
…..And don’t forget how fun it is to take in the Sidney Sparkles Santa Parade at 5pm- and then the Lighted Sailpast Boat Parade at 6:15. It’s a fun filled day to kick off the holiday season! Be sure to bring items for the food bank for collection during the parade.
I really, really love what our town does for this special day and how it has grown into such a lovely town- yet I dream for “the icing on the cake” which to me would be…. for the businesses and the town to do a completely lit up street like Ladysmith! We drove thru on a whim one year coming down from skiing late at night not knowing what we were in for and-Wow Wee- that town is utterly magical during the holidays even when all the shops are closed! Practically every single shop has gone to town- heee- with their display of lights and swags across the street, roof top scenes- it is incredible! Check out this link for Ladysmith Festival of Lights right here. If you get a chance or if you are heading up island you really should check it out. One day perhaps I can convince the folks around town to take our little town that is so amazing to the next level and make it utterly fantastic!
We can’t wait to see you in the shop . We hope you will also take time to enjoy what our wonderful community has to offer!
ps- I hope you are starting to think about The Ultimate Christmas Decorating Contest- and what you might photograph or submit! Submissions can be made in person starting December 1st thru to December 24th. The link is right here for the categories and if you need to revisit the details.
