Now is the best time to get a mailbox at Sip and Ship!

Just like Meg Ryan, or shall we say Kathleen Kelly, we all know the feeling of excited butterflies bubbling up in our stomachs when receiving a special piece of mail.

“I hear nothing. Not even a sound on the streets of New York, just the beat of my own heart. I have mail. From you.”

And now our hearts are swelling! Arguably one of the best rom-coms of all time, this film is perfect to watch as Valentine’s Day approaches. Reminding us how important it is to send tokens of our affection, whether virtual or a hard copy (you know which one we prefer!).

While it’s certainly the season of love letters and special gifts, Sip and Ship loves sending and receiving your mail every day of the year. As package theft continues to rise, let our secure location give you peace of mind and an excuse to enjoy hand-crafted, specialty lattes any day of the week.

We’re excited to announce a new mailbox membership referral program, allowing current members 3 months free or complimentary oversized fees for a year any time they refer a new mailbox customer to us. Sip and Ship is the conduit that connects people and helps businesses thrive. Our one-stop shop is designed to improve your life through increased convenience, connection, and community.

Wondering what else is going on this week? Wednesday, January 31st is National Hot Chocolate Day and you know where to celebrate! We’ll give you a hint - it’s one of the happiest, dog-friendly, neighborhood stores that can’t wait for your visit.

Our shelves are full of Valentine’s Day merchandise to impress your loved ones. Trust us - stock up on cards and chocolate now before it’s too late! We want to know your favorite rom-com, too, so let us know in-store or reply to this email.
