Sip and Ship understands the value of sharing and sending thanks to others in a variety of ways. This season, we look forward to helping your set the mood of gratitude. F rom hostess gifts to client appreciation through small acts of kindness that provide comfort and care, Sip and Ship has the perfect way to extend your gratitude to co-workers, friends and family - both far and near.

At Sip and Ship we believe that being able to take care of our team, helps them better care for you. Therefore, we plan to close both Ballard and Greenwood stores on Thanksgiving and the day after (Nov. 26-27th) to give our team the chance to celebrate with their friends and family and to rest up in preparation for a busy holiday shipping season.

We will reopen our doors on Small Business Saturday (Nov. 28th) to help you stock up on your holiday gift giving. With any purchase, from coffee to cozy socks, Sip and Ship will donate 10% of your purchase to Mary’s Place as a way to extend our gratitude to you for your support and our work together to reinvest back into the Seattle community.

Sip and Ship is grateful for the opportunity to serve you and we look forward to seeing you soon.
