[StBernard] Shop St. Bernard to be Nov. 18; Chamber deadline for businesses to participate is Sept. 1

[Westley Annis]

Shop St. Bernard is Back! 

Sign up your business to be a participant in this year's event. 

Exclusively for members of the St. Bernard Chamber of Commerce

	
The St. Bernard Chamber is planning our annual Shop St. Bernard program - a
holiday shopping event with your business in mind!

 

on 

Thursday, November 18th, 2010 

from 3pm until 7pm

 

We help you get the holiday season off to a great start, complete with
advertising, shopping sales, an after-party, and more!

 
Shop St. Bernard begins with advertising the event and the various business
participants in the weeks leading up to November 18th.  

 

Then, on Thursday, business offer special sales, deals, or inventory and the
public is encouraged to visit as many stores as possible during the event
and collect coupons.  At 7pm that night, everyone meets at the Government
Complex for the after-party, with door prizes, entertainment, and
refreshments.

 

Shoppers that visited stores on Thursday can then return on Friday and
Saturday to use the coupons they collected and earn extra Christmas Cash
Back - in coordination with Parish President Craig Taffaro's holiday
shopping rewards program.

 

It's simple - we coordinate everything!  Plus, we are looking for all kinds
of businesses - retail, services, for him, for her, for the whole family!

 

Your business gets ad space in three newspapers (Times-Picayune, St. Bernard
Voice, and the St. Bernard News), included on all flyers and emails, plus
general increased exposure and traffic from the promotion.

 

The cost to participate is approx. $300; the cost may vary with the number
of participants and will be finalized in early September.  We also ask that
your business provide light refreshments during the event and a door prize
for the after-party.
