Up The Street SALE!

It's that time of year again!  Strathroy's Downtown Dollars go on sale today at the Royal Bank beginning at 10:00 am. 
There will be cake, prizes and a live remote by myFM Radio (co-sponsored by Doug and Marion’s Bike Shop).
Pay $8.50 and get $10.00 to use at a participating BIA Merchant ($250.00 maximum per person).
All merchants participating in the Downtown Dollars program will display a “We accept Downtown Dollars Here!” sign.
Many businesses are also holding additional sales this weekend to stretch your buying dollar even further.
It's a great weekend to take advantage of all of the great shopping in the Downtown.

Up The Street is offering 15% off all scrapbooking & Born in a Barn purchases this weekend (10% off antiques) ... even if you don't use the Downtown Dollars.  This discount is in addition to discounts found in the Sale Bin (50% off) and on the Sale Table (40% off) and Sale Rack (25% off).
If you haven't had time to get into the store in the last few weeks, you'll find that there has been a lot of new stock added.  New paper lines arrived yesterday from Bo Bunny and Teresa Collins.  The hockey paper has been restocked with a few new patterns.  Very cool animal print papers as well.
I'm still waiting on the Fudge and Chocolate Pizza, but am hoping to see it in the next few days.  Great stocking stuffers, teacher gifts, hostess gifts or as a little boost of energy to get you through all that will be coming at you over the next month ;)

New this year to the Downtown is the "Community Teddy Bear Hunt".
Grab a ballot at any of the participating businesses, find ten teddy bears (and their names) and enter your ballot (by December 13th) to win the Grand Prize containing contributions from all of the participating businesses.

From 6:00 until 8:00 pm (Thursday evening), Libro Financial and Sydenham Community Credit Union have graciously sponsored the horse wagon rides around the downtown.  Rides are free!  The pick up area is the Shopper’s Drug Mart parking lot.

Up The Street will be open
from 10:00 am until 8:00 pm tonight (Thursday),
noon until 8:00 pm tomorrow
and 10:00 am until 4:00 pm on Saturday.
Hope to see you this weekend!
