Our very weekly email--Last Chance for Holiday Shopping edition

Free Shipping: read all about it.

Dear %%First Name%%,

Yes, we can still ship that to you

We're coming to the end of this year's holiday shopping season. Place your order right now and we can still get it delivered to you (or your loved one) before Christmas.

How is this possible, you ask. Easy--Priority Mail is the answer. For a measly $8 we'll turbocharge your package with Priority Mail moxie and have it to your destination in no time flat.

If you order items not in stock we may still be able to get them to you so go ahead and place your order and we'll let you know right away if we can make it or not.

When you check out make sure you pick USPS Priority Mail as your method of shipping. Our normal free shipping via Media Mail cannot guarantee timely delivery.

Holiday Hours: open 'til 8 pm Monday thru Thursday

If you're in our neighborhood or even if you just want to call in an order we'll have late hours this coming week.

If you have an MLB gift certificate come on in and use it on Sunday, Dec. 26th (Boxing Day) and we'll give you a cup of coffee and a free paperback.

Pick your gift with Staff Picks for December

We've got a clever assortment of books and more in our Staff Picks for December. Books for adults and kids will provide ideas for everyone on your list.

Shipping guidelines for Christmas delivery

If you are planning to have us ship you books or baskets or have them shipped to folks on your list, here's what you need to know:

Media Mail, our free shipping option, packages must leave here no later than Dec. 15 to assure delivery by Christmas.

Priority Mail, cost of $8, will get packages to your destination if mailed by Dec. 21.
