Hello to all! I am on various e-newsletter mailing lists and am an avid collector of good ideas! I wanted to share a couple with you to plant the seed for ideas for next holiday season. See the idea from Port Townsend for the:
- "Santa Shops Here" promotion, November 1-Dec 24. For every $500 spent at participating merchants, customers get to pick a $50 gift certificate from the Port Townsend Main Street Program's wall of gift certificates.
-Free gift wrapping stations over the holidays in a couple downtown locations - how fun is that!
