(limit one per customer, not combinable with any other offers, expires April 1st and not redeemable for cash).

Don't Forget Your Gal On Galentine's Day!

2/10/2019

1 Comment

Sparked by the creative mind of Amy Poehler(aka Leslie Knope) on the tv show Parks and Recreation, Galentine’s Day is February 13th. A day dedicated to honoring and celebrating girl-power and the beauty of ladies supporting ladies. Platonic relationships that give us strength, fellow bad-ass lady bosses that ‘get’ each other, goddesses that are unafraid to share and shine their light with female rising stars or who just appreciate the awesomeness of your gal-friends! This day comes with a few funny quotes from “Leslie Knope” to tickle your funny bone and maybe inspire a few quips of your own to jot down in a love note to your special gal-pal(s) this Galentine’s Day.

“You know my code: hoes before bros. Uteruses before duderuses…Ovaries before brovaries.”

“We need to remember what’s important in life: friends, waffles, work. Or waffles, friends, work. Doesn’t matter, but work is third.”

“I am big enough to admit that I am often inspired by myself."

Don’t forget this week, Sip and Ship has a small curated collection from female Seattle artist Amy Healy. Tiny art embellished onto cards for you to see at the Ballard Sip and Ship. Stop in this week to sip coffee with us and send a card to your favorite gal-pal and other super-powers in your life. Amy will be featuring more of her artwork in her second pop-up-shop on February 14th from 10am-2pm.

We look forward to seeing and sharing a giggle or two with you over our coffee and mailing counters

Sincerely,
Diana and Your Sip and Ship Team

Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be exclusive to those in a romantic relationship. It’s a little reminder to spread love to those around you, whether it’s a friend, family member, or a complete stranger.

Not just on Valentine’s Day but every day of the year. Having said that, here are 10 simple ways to spread love that will not only make you feel great but also brighten someone’s day.
10 Ways To Spread Love and Kindness All Around You
1. Celebrate your bestie and your friendship with champagne and chocolate.
2. Smile and compliment a stranger.
3. Mail a small token of your appreciation to a family member.
4. Put your phone down when you’re talking with someone.
5. Share a poem with your family during dinner
6. Bake a homemade treat for your teammates at work.
7. Look in the mirror and say “I love you.”
8. Make a difference and give joy to others by clearing out your closet and taking a donation to Goodwill, your favorite charity, or bringing your goods to a consignment shop.

Here’s what’s happening at Sip and Ship:

Corkcicle drinkware has arrived in refreshing colors to keep your hydration goals quenched.
Pop Up Shop this Saturday, February 2nd from 10am-4pm at Ballard Sip and Ship.
We look forward to hosting ARTICLE22, a women-owned sustainable jewelry brand that celebrates stories of transformation. Turning negative into positive, aluminum bomb shrapnel and scrap is finished with precious metals and stones by Laotian artisans. Each handcrafted talisman is a powerful symbol for every person on a quest to turn bad into good. Each piece contributes to the safe clearance of some of the 80 million unexploded bombs contaminating land in Laos.
Please pardon the dust and noise - the Greenwood Sip and Ship expansion is underway.
We want to introduce to you Nathaniel Moore as our new Ballard Store Manager and bid a fond farewell to Leslie Goldman after her four years of service. We wish her nothing but the best in her new adventures.

As always, we look forward to seeing and hearing what you’re up to. Have a great week!

How can we best support you, your family and your business in 2019? Hit reply to this email and tell us - - we really want to know
As one of our customers recently shared on Yelp:
Jacque C. 12/8/2018 - Seattle
“I have a local shipping business just blocks from my home but instead I've been shipping and shopping at Sip & Ship for years. Why? Quite frankly, it's the service. They are SO friendly and lovely and really work hard to find me the best rate to ship--which I really appreciate. This photo (which I snagged off their website) of the owner says it all; friendly and professional. This, plus the coffee, snacks and the gift shop make this little shop a place I actually look forward to visiting because they really take care of you. What's not to love about that?"
The Sip and Ship team considers it is an honor to be of service within our community. We are extremely grateful to the people who live and work in our neighborhoods and allow us to support their lives. We LOVE engaging with our guests and being a small part of all of the amazing things that are happening throughout Seattle. Keep doing what you’re doing out there and know that Sip and Ship always has your back.
Wishing you all a healthy and prosperous 2019!
Sincerely,
Diana and Your Sip and Ship Team
