LOVE Has Everything To Do With It

2/1/2020

While Tina Turner can still be heard belting out the question, Sip and Ship has a few renditions in response. First, whether you believe in cupid or not, loving relationships are not built in one day but rather a little bit each day. Secondly, here are a few ways you can share your love in creative and wallet-friendly ways at Sip and Ship:

1. Savor Your Love
These days handwritten cards are considered keepsakes. Inside one, share your favorite memory or meal you’ve experienced with your special person/people. Trust me when I say that they will save and revisit your sentiments for years to come.

2. Show Your
Who doesn’t love a treasure hunt? Consider hiding a handful of love notes with sweet quotes or sayings on them, each one leading to a fancy box of chocolates, scented bubble bath or experience in the end. You decide!

3. Send Your Love
There is nothing more thoughtful than a handwritten note and beautifully wrapped gift compared with something that arrives drop-shipped in a bag! Select a few specialty chocolate bars or champagne gummy bears and we’ll happily put a ribbon on them for mailing or hand-delivering to your sweetie.

You Deserve The Very Best

As we approach a new year and new decade, your Sip and Ship team wanted to extend our sincerest thanks for making a special trip to see us this holiday season. Providing you with a magical and bright shipping experience is what we train for year-round and look forward to providing you with exceptional service throughout 2020.

Speaking of which, 2020 will continue to be a year of great transformation. In our Ballard community, Sip and Ship will become acutely nestled in between two high rise building projects. One will be a boutique hotel with 152 rooms. On the other side of us, we anticipate a combined 208 micro-housing unit. In our Greenwood/Phinneyridge neighborhood, Sip and Ship is currently in phase two of our expansion project. A lot of you have experienced our new shipping center and we look forward to introducing a new and more spacious coffee shop to complete the SIP portion of our unique guest experience by mid-February. We can’t thank you enough for your patience and continued support during this growth process.

Finally, we wanted to give you a heads up that both Sip and Ship locations will be closing early on December 31st at 5pm, remaining closed on January 1st. We will resume regular business hours on January 2nd at 7 am.

We look forward to working with you in 2020 and wish you and yours a healthy and prosperous new year and new decade ahead!

For most of us, it’s the small moments of laughter, kindness, and care that truly spark and mark the joys of the season (and in life, for that matter).

During the hustle and bustle of the season this year, Sip and Ship continues to support and welcome change. With the expansion of Greenwood Sip and Ship, onboarding new team members and transitioning new faces into new spaces, change is the only constant in this business. While it’s never easy, it’s often necessary for continued growth, trust and resilience as move into the new year together.

Please join the Sip and Ship team in thanking Jerad and Emma for their service over the years and wishing them all the best in their future endeavors. The Sip and Ship team stands united in gratitude for the opportunities to continue to serve our valued customers and community. We look forward to sharing the joys of the season, and beyond, with you and your loved ones.

Warmest holiday wishes from Diana, Steve and our amazing Sip and Ship Team
