Clearly I am not able to keep up with the large retailers during the Holiday season. However, the Christmas Holidays bring in so many orders in a short period of time that it allows me to offer a 10% off three day “group” discount which am always thankful to offer.
Starting tomorrow, everything on my website is offered at 10% off the retail price. This discount will only last through “Cyber Monday” and this is the only time of year where I am able to offer this discount. I hope everyone wanting to give an original, handcrafted gift this year is poised to take advantage of this annual holiday special. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas everyone! – Chase Allen
