Today is the first official day that glee gifts is open at the Village Shops in Canton! We have been working hard to merchandise the store in time for this very special day! YAY!
It seems like yesterday that glee gifts opened its first store on Main Street, downtown Mansfield. Actually, it was 6 years ago! I was working at the Mansfield Crossing store this past weekend, chatting with a customer about those days on Main Street. Thanks to all for your loyalty to glee gifts, and your support for small business. Yes, past times have been challenging but we keep forging ahead to be your best local gift store!
We are looking forward to a busy holiday season. Please stop in to see our exciting array of gifts, at affordable prices. And remember we have free gift wrap! And Christmas tags! Fa-la-la-la-la!
Great news! I now have my own key for the Canton Store! The gleeful work has begun!
Here are some updates:
Up until last Wednesday I wasn't sure if the store move was really going to occur. Dealing with the leasing agents was brutal. I signed a temporary lease for one year--to see how sales fair in Cobbs Corner. If sales are great, the leasing company will want a percentage of sales. If it goes okay, the leasing company will bump up my base rent. If sales are poor, they will kick me to the curb after a year. I am excited about the move, yet fearful. Rents are the bain of a retailers existence. But now that the lease is behind me, at least for the time being, it's time to make the space mine and move forward.
Funny, Mansfield had more store credits cashed in this past weekend than ever before. We are transitioning store credits in the form of paper reciept to gift cards If you have a store credit it can be used in Canton and Mansfield, and they are good for 7 years. Wednesday the Tri-Town Chamber will have it's meet and greet from 5-7. Please join us and enjoy 10% off your purchase.
People ask me if I am sad to leave Foxboro. No. I'm sorry you are sad though. I love the space there but Chestnut Green Shops is not RETAIL friendly. What I mean by that is that I need more foot traffic in a shopping area to help my business grow. Chestnut Green offers services, where people run mostly errands. Next weekend will be the last weekend the doors will be open for business. And since I don't want to move what's there now the
Seasonal, Lindsay Phillips, Mariposa, beads, serving platters, and fun little things at great prices to get a head start on your holiday shopping!
Forward to your friends! We may turn this into a big party!
My! The e-mail I sent yesterday generated alot of buzz! Thanks everyone for your well wishes and chats!
Let me tell you,it's been a crazy few weeks lately. glee Mansfield is busy, my boys are now attending school in Worcester, living with my parents, so I've been commuting from Worcester twice a week. And, I made a decision to move the Foxboro store; a decision that was really tough. But once I made the decision I haven't felt so "crazed".
So you ask, where is the store moving to?
The store is moving to The Village Shops in Canton at Cobbs Corner. It will be on the Bertuccis side, a few doors up from Romanza, a funky clothing boutique. Many of you already shop at Romanza and if you haven't you have to stop by to poke around. I think we will be a great complement to one another.
Call me crazy, but the most appealing part of the move is that I will be able to ride my bike to work again since now I live only a mile away from the Village Shops. I used to ride my bike to work when the store was downtown Mansfield. Many of you laughed as I rode by, all glossied and glittered up with sweat on my brow. I am looking forward to riding to work again, and who knows--I might even make a few new acquaintances along the way!
So, here's the plan:
glee/Mansfield is going strong. Many of you have told me that you have more "luck" finding gifts at the Foxboro store. glee/Mansfield is now receiving new merchandise daily similar to what was carried at Foxboro store. We also have some great events to tell you about for the month of October:
glee/Foxy has new store hours which are FRI-SAT 10-6 and SUNDAY 12-5. The front of the store is all sale merchandise marked down 20-50% . Come start your holiday shopping! The back of the store is full priced merchandise ready for the new store which you are welcome to peruse. Gift wrap is limited to full price merchandise only.
glee/Canton is slated to open by November 15th. There's one little glitch though, I haven't signed the lease yet. I received the lease late Friday night that still needs the ol' John Hancock. Yes, it's crazy that I let the cat out of the bag before the signed deal is done. But I'm fairly certain that all will be well.
I joked yesterday with a couple of people that glee gifts is zigzagging it's way to the Mall of America. It's a crazy idea, and if it ever happens, it certainly will be a long commute on bike!
gleefully yours!
