Greetings Reuse Fans,
It’s a great time of year to spread some green cheer! We may not top your list of holiday shopping destinations, but that doesn’t mean that CJ can’t be a spot to get a meaningful gift for the art, craft or DIY enthusiast in your life. In addition to the myriad of finds in our lighting, Uniquities, or hardware section, we have some special CJ gift cards designed to hang on your tree (min. gift card value $20). Regular gift cards also available.
Not to mention, it’s Christmas Tree Sale weekend at CJ! Indiana, PA-based Four Frozen Farmers Come have your sustainably grown Christmas trees and handmade wreaths – December 8-10 only. The Frozen Farmers have been at CJ for a least a decade. They are part of a long commitment at CJ to support local, sustainable stuff. We strive to achieve that goal through various partnerships. Whether it’s our recent launching of weekend pop up shops (hey, there’s another one next weekend with Maria Mangano!) or inviting local artisans from Monmade to participate and benefit from our annual fundraiser, the Steel City Big Pour. Buy a tree this weekend and save 10% in the store, as well.
In 2018, we will be focused on providing reuse themed workshops to the community. This will be another opportunity for CJ to promote local handy women and men to share their skills with the community and promote their small businesses.
We can’t offer community based promotion without your support. So drop by CJ and pick up your CJ Gift Card, it’s a great way to introduce your friends to reuse! Or give it to your partner, the one we always hear about on the retail floor who loves to buy stuff at CJ, even if you don’t!
Another way to support our programs and partnerships is to purchase a Big Pour Holiday gift pack, on sale at the store starting Dec. 15th. This is for the other half of the spouse team who like the idea of reuse, but would rather support it by going to a really killer beer tasting event. You can put it under your Frozen Farmer tree (oh yeah, that supports CJ, too).
