Most Items STILL 20% to 30% OFF!! Cape Annie's "After-Christmas Sale" To Continue Into The Spring Months! . . . . . . . .Many customers have taken advantage of the great savings on our web site after receiving our December 28th "sale" e-mail. We have decided to continue these savings on many of theses items into the spring months. The nautical belts and North Country Wind Bells were on sale for a "brief" period, and are now back at regular prices. As we restock the store over the next few months, those items will also be returned to their regular prices. For those of you who order Cape Shore products on a regular basis, many of those items will begin being "back-in-stock" in a few short weeks. Great items such as Harbor Mugs, Magnetic Notepads, Eyeglass Cases, Scented Bar Soap, and even CHRISTMAS CARDS will be back on our web site. PLUS, Cape Shore always has lots of great NEW items every year, which you will find under the "WHAT'S NEW" button. We just added 12 NEW Cape Shore items there! Much of the remainder of the web site will remain on sale until they are gone. Be sure to check the "SALE TABLE" button, as many items will be increased to 40-50% OFF and moved to this section! . . . . . . . .On the front page of our store site, you'll see an ad box, with "TODAY'S SPECIAL," which will be unannounced, and may last 1-3 days, before the next "Special" takes over. Each special will be a certain item or section of items on our web site, and will be an EXTRA 10% or 20% OFF an already-sale price. If you see it, take advantage of it, because it may be gone the next time that you visit our online store site.
. . . . . . . .The prices of our remaining 2011 inventory of Donna Sharp bags and accessories have been SLASHED, so you will be able to order them by phone (508-398-9790). We have pictured below, a current, press-time inventory of the Donna Sharp bags that we have left in stock.
Customer "Ornament Ball" Tree Complete! November and December Christmas Card Customers Added To The Ornament Ball Tree . . . . . . . .As promised, the 1st Annual Customer "Ornament Ball" Christmas Tree was filled before Christmas Eve and posted on our web site. If you haven't seen it yet, you can go to our online store, in the CHRISTMAS section, and find YOUR ornament ball. An ornament ball was created for everyone who ordered at least 1 box of Christmas cards from us. There are 40 close-up pictures taken of the tree, starting from the top of the tree. If you ordered early in the year (February - August), check in the first few close-up pictures. If you ordered late in the year, check the final few close-up pictures. If you have trouble finding your ornament ball, please e-mail us, and we'll be happy to point you in the right direction. Winter months - A Time For Painting! "Wall of Fame" Buoy Creation Will Be Back In Business! . . . . . . . .As we promised last month, we haven't forgotten those of you who spent $50+ at our store this summer and have been waiting patiently to see their buoys hung in their rightful place. We will be finishing up end-of-the-year projects such as inventory, accounting and taxes, and general re-organization for 2012, and Jim will be back at work with the buoys. As Jim gets them painted, we will have close-ups of everyone's buoy in the first available newsletter. . . . . See the latest photo of our "Not-So-Ugly Cage."
. . . . . . . .We've been waiting for the beginning of 2012 to see if Harbour Lights will be remaining in business. Many of you have taken our advise and ordered some of your favorites over the past few months. . . JUST IN CASE! There is no word from them about any 2012 NEW Releases, but we hope to talk to them in the next few days, to get a "hint" of what may be happening with the company. . . . . . . . .Many of you have taken advantage of our "$10 BONUS BUCKS" offer, when you spend over $50 on an order (must be $50 BEFORE shipping/tax), and we're keeping it going in 2012. You can use that $10 OFF on a future order, as long as you use it before the expiration date. It MUST be used the same person that had the "original" order. . . . . . . . .Our "FREE EARRINGS" gift with orders over $25 has officially ended, with the final pair being given out just a few days before Christmas. Our final shipment of them was larger than we expected, so we were able to carry the giveaway to the end of the shopping season. It was a great 3-year run that we had with these earrings and we were happy to be able to make this offer to our customers. Hopefully, another opportunity will come along someday that we can pass on to you! . . . . . . . .Our winter hours for the months of January, February and March are officially "unofficial." As you can imagine, this is a very slow time of year for retailers on Cape Cod, and also for online stores. With a "physical" store incurring large overhead costs for heat and electricity at this time of year, there is very little in-store traffic to offset these costs. After going back and forth on what to do for this season, we have decided to have very limited "official" hours, plus "unofficial" hours, when Jim is still here, working on the web site (or painting "wall of fame" buoys). The official hours will be: STILL CLOSED TUESDAYS! SATURDAY - 10:00 till 5:00 PM SUNDAY - NOON till 4:00 PM Although the weekday hours are short, we have found that most customers at this time of year, find us in the morning hours. . . . The "UNOFFICIAL" part is this . . . Most weekdays, Jim will still be here till 5:00 PM, working on the web site and store projects. If you see the silver Tundra in the parking lot, and the sign says "CLOSED," we INSIST that you knock on the door if you'd like to browse. We're always happy to let you in. Why the "CLOSED at NOON then? Being closed allows us to turn most of the lights off AND turn the heat way down, to save on overhead expenses. So what if Jim's teeth are chattering and his fingers turn numb as he tries to type on the computer!! We hate to miss you if you've stopped by, so PLEASE knock on the door if you see Jim's truck! Let's keep this warm winter weather going right through March! Happy New Year! JIM, ANN and ANDY

Navigating between our "catalog" and "online store" At Cape Annie's Lighthouse, we have two separate web sites. You are currently on "www.capeannieslighthouse.com," which is our original, home site. Our e-mail newsletter and BRAND NEW catalog are sub-pages on this web site. Our 2nd web site, which is our shopping, online store site, is part of the Yahoo Store network, and is at "www.capeannieslighthouses.com." In order to make your navigating as easy as possible, you will be able to click on any of the "Details. Order" links that you will see with every item in the catalog, which will take you to the corresponding pages of our online store site. Conversely, when you are on any page of our online store site, you will be able to scroll to the bottom and click on the link that says "Check out our latest newsletter and catalog". This will return you here, to these pages of our original web site. What items will be in the catalog? Our online Yahoo store has thousands of items for sale, far more than we will ever be able to put in these catalog pages. If you are looking for a specific item, it will always be more advantageous to search for it there, instead of our catalog pages. Although we have just begun the catalog in 2010, our ultimate goal is for it to be a compilation of our best-selling items, and new items that we choose to feature. These "new" items are ones that we hope will also become best sellers. The purpose of the catalog is to allow you to see all of these "best-selling" items at once, whereas, on our Yahoo store site, you will need to know which "category" to find each item in. So, please enjoy scrolling through our catalog, but also, know that there will be a much larger variety of items for sale at our online store site. Use our "ORDER FORM" instead of shopping "online." If you would prefer to mail/fax us an order form instead of shopping online, you may do so by first printing out one of our ORDER FORMS. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE - Before you send us the order form, please call (508-398-9790) or e-mail us to confirm that we have the item(s) in stock, in the amounts that you would like to order. This is especially true if you are paying by check, because we cannot adjust your check total if some items are out-of-stock, or discontinued. Once we have confirmed that we have your item(s) in stock, we will be happy to hold it for you until we receive your order form. |
