Happy Summer! Here's the latest news from Urban Mercantile:

SUMMER TUNICS (COLE VALLEY)

FATHER'S DAY IDEAS (COLE VALLEY)

SALE AT OUR DESIGN CENTER LOCATION (SHOWPLACE)

::: Our super-popular SUMMER TUNICS arrived this week! $38.50 buys you a classic warm weather look that's as appropriate at the beach as it is out on the town. Now if our weather would cooperate.

::: The 20th of this month is FATHER'S DAY, so you can't say you weren't reminded. Great gifts include: J. Fold wallets and card holders in colors and cut-outs, SF-based Office Wiederholt socks in awesome color combinations, wine glasses by Iittla, and beer glasses by Cast. There's always great books on food and design, like Chronicle Books new release Handy Dad.

::: As you may have heard, Urban Mercantile opened a second location in the DESIGN CENTER in November (see this month's 7x7 Magazine) and will be participating in the Summer Designer Sample Sale this coming Saturday and Sunday, 12 & 13 June.

Please keep mind that sale items are not returnable or exchangeable. Due to the pace of the sale we cannot allow approvals or memos. And sale items cannot be gift-wrapped.

Holiday News!

 Yes, I'm back! And I couldn't be happier! After months of neglect--due to an insane schedule, myriad personal deets, and lame excuses I wouldn't dare bore you with (see last item below, ta da!)--my hope is to begin making regular posts again. So much has happened and much more to come, so stay tuned. So let's begin. . . 

Firstly, a heartfelt Happy Holidays from all of us at Urban Mercantile! Secondly, but more importantly, a big thank you for making the past year of serving you an absolute pleasure! We have some important news to share with you in hopes of making your holiday shopping more enjoyable than ever.

We’re continuing with the success of last year’s Donate=Discount. We’re helping the San Francisco Food Bank again, but adding our assistance to Toys for Tots this year. Bring in up to three usable items for either program and receive a 5% discount on your purchase in our store for each item donated. One item gets you 5% off, two items gets you 10% off, and three items gets you 15% off! Please refer to program guidelines for donations (see below). This event runs next weekend, beginning Thursday 10 December through Sunday 13 December.

For the food program, consider donating rice, pasta, canned fruits and veggies, tuna, soups, and peanut butter (no glass or expired food, please!). For the toy program, please consider donating a brand new toy for a boy and a girl (no wrapped gifts, please!). A big thanks from us and all those who will benefit!
