Can you believe that there are only 7 weeks until Christmas?!?!
We will be in the thick of the season before you know it. That being said, DO NOT miss out on your opportunity to score great deals, delicious meals, and gift certificate steals. Friday and Saturday, Nov. 9 and 10 is the Carthage Christmas Open House. For two days area retailers and restaurants are pulling out the stops for you to kick off your holiday shopping.
Drop by the sponsors listed below or the Chamber, 402 S. Garrison to pick up stamp cards and get out there this weekend to collect those stamps.
A minimum of 10 stamps makes you eligible to win one of four prize packs including gift certificates from sponsors. Every prize pack will have at least 4 gift certificates. Make sure to turn your completed card with your name and address back in to sponsors or bring it by the Chamber no later than Monday, Nov. 12. Use the gift certificate prize packs to get more shopping done or keep them to spend on yourself. I won’t tell! Sponsors include: All Things Grand, Big Dog Boutique, Carthage Sports World, Carthage True Value Hardware, Dr. Fly’s Salon, Fair Acres Family YMCA, Front Page, Halo Salon, The Hive, Joslyn’s Artisan Market, Kascade Steakhouse, Lucky J Steakhouse, Precious Moments Chapel, Race Brothers Farm & Home,Repurpose Boutique, Sirloin Stockade, and Sun Loan.
If you’re anything like me, the idea of your paycheck, earned locally, being spent locally puts you truly in the holiday spirit.
Get out there and check out the great deals on food items, gift certificates, gorgeous accessories, beauty and indulgence, health and fitness, handmade items, clothing, sporting and home goods, and tons of other hot ticket/wish list items!
A few area businesses even plan to have extended shopping hours beginning Nov. 9. Check out the Christmas in Carthage calendar booklet available at the above listed sponsors and the Chamber for details.
Need a few stocking stuffers? Check out Carthage Sports World, Kascade Steakhouse, and The Palms Massage and Day Spa on the weekend of Nov. 16 and 17 and score amazing gift cards.
Who wouldn’t love a shopping spree, a relaxing spa day, and some delicious steakhouse grub bursting out of their stocking?
Happy early Christmas season everyone! Stay warm, be safe, and most importantly, good luck in your beginning stages of finding the perfect gift for everyone on your list!
