I am ready for some FOOTBALL!

It's no surprise that I'm a BC Lions fan.  In fact, I've been a fan since before it was cool.  My dad bought season tickets for two years in a row when I was 10/11 years old and through those two seasons, I learned the rules of football.  We always ended up going to at least one game each season after that, in fact when I moved out, I bought my own pair of season tickets.

Baby K went to 3 games last year, including our season championship, the Grey Cup.  That little 5.5 month old did fantastic!  And we WON!  So as defending champions, my dad and I bought season tickets this year.  And we did fantastic again, even with a new head coach.  First in the league!  And today, we play in the Western Championship game, which I am going to!

I've had a great weekend in the store and want to keep that energy going.  So I'm going to play a little game with my fans!  Every time the BC Lions score a touchdown, they donate one football to minor league teams and I'm going to copy them.

Every time the BC Lions score a touchdown, I will give away a 40% off coupon code to the first person who comments on my Facebook page.  You must comment on the post that contains the link to this blog post.  For those who won't be watching the game, I will post a comment, but since I will be at the game, it might take a few minutes to calm down from the celebration.  So how about incentive?  If you beat me, I'll give you 45%!

And what about if the Lions win???  I'll give away a handful of coupon codes!  Codes from today will be valid until Wednesday night.

If they win, you win!  GO LIONS GO!

'Tis that time of year

Christmas, that is.  And I love everything about Christmas, including doing things for those less fortunate.  And I've found a way that you can be involved as well!

So, for this weekend, I will donate 10% of all sales to a local food bank.  Let's call it Food Bank Friday, except I'm in a good mood and will extend this first one until Sunday.

Head on over to the Hyena Cart Store and check out now!


Happy Shopping, and thank you for helping!

Update for local customers

Great update for my local customers!

I hate to admit it, but it seems like my local orders have been taking too long to complete and get out.  I receive requests through email, Facebook and in person and while I try to keep a spreadsheet of all orders, it's hard to keep track of when everything was 'ordered' when there is no official order placed.  It is just easier to keep all of my orders in Hyena Cart and work through them on there in the order received.

So I've made some adjustments to my Hyena Cart store and now local orders will be placed through there as well.  I have added a local pickup option to the shipping options, and have activated the 'check/money order' option.  This option is ONLY available to customers who will pick up or meet locally and is simply there in lieu of cash, since I don't have that option on HC.  Other orders placed using this option, will be cancelled.

If you are a local customer and have a pending request, I will contact you if I need you to use this option, with a link to your personal listing.  Otherwise, your order IS in process and I will contact you when it is completed.  This also gives my local customers the option to use paypal and pay for shipping if they prefer that.

I will be back later with more store updates, but wanted to get this typed out before I forgot.

Happy shopping!

SURPRISE DISCOUNTS!

I have activated discount code HOLIDAY2012 for a surprise percentage off your purchase.  And the discount amount will change throughout the day!  How fun is that??  It could be 40% and then change to 10%, or 25%.

And don't forget today is the last day of the 12 Days of Christmas Sale, so make sure you get your order in!  The shipping deadlines are quickly approaching, and the mail will start to take longer and longer, as will my custom order completion time!  I also have a few local events coming up and my online store will be closed during those to ensure there are no oversells, so if you've been eyeing something, head over to the Hyena Cart Store and check out now!  Then head over to my Facebook page and let everyone there know how much your discount was good for!

Happy Shopping!

On the 8th Day of Christmas.....

Today's sale is BIBS!

Terry backed bibs (regular $8 each, 2 for $15, 3 for $20) are on sale for $6 each!
Specialty bibs (regular $10 each, 2 for $18, 3 for $25) are on sale for $8 each!


My bibs have a few great features, including the fact that they're longer and they have a side snap closure.  By having the closure on the side, you don't have to play with the bib behind your baby's head, and by having a snap it is harder for your baby to remove.  Snaps are also more durable after washing, I find that velcro collects hair and lint and stuff and then doesn't work as well, whereas snaps don't have that problem.

What makes the specialty bibs that much better?  Instead of having the organic bamboo terry exposed on the back, they had an added layer of super soft minky.  And since these ones are Christmas themed, you get to choose red or green minky!

This sale is for today only, November 8th!

12 Days of Christmas

If you're a fan on my Facebook page then I'm sure you've seen that I'm doing a 12 Days of Christmas sale.  Yes I know it's November, but since most of my sales are done online and require shipping, I wanted to make sure I could get a few good sales in with plenty of time for orders to ship.

Today is day 7 and I'm including a free Pacifier/Toy clip OR $6 off of a Mitten Holder Clip with any purchase over $15.  Just enter discount code 7SWANS at checkout to apply the discount.  Head over to the Hyena Cart store and check out what's available.

Because of the Facebook rules regarding contests and sales being advertised on Facebook, I will be posting all my sales here first and then linking to the store page.  So my Facebook fans will still see all the sales, and if you don't have Facebook, then you can still follow what's going on.

Also see the Holiday Shipping Deadlines listed on the store to make sure you receive your products in time for Christmas.

Happy Shopping!
