Sun Singer News
In Brief
Halloween for Grown Ups!
When we were kids, we all had that favorite neighbor who gave out the best candy. We couldn't wait to return home, pour our goodies onto the floor and savor the fruits of our labor.
Now, as adults, we are free to indulge on whatever candies and sweets we desire. To make this Halloween extra special we have assembled our finest selection of delicacies. We've got our Fall supply of Pumpkin Crunch and Pumpkin Pretzels from South Bend Chocolate Company. Pumpkin Crunch is an unforgettable blend of carmel corn, chocolate, almonds, pumpkin and cinnamon. And what would Halloween be without chocolate? Pumpkin Pretzels
are mini pretzels covered in pumpkin spiced chocolate and stripped in
white chocolate. A perfect combination of salty and sweet. This Halloween trade in your lollipops, gummy bears and candy bars and treat you and your guests to our collection of sweets in our Halloween Boutique.
Boss's Day is October 16th
Now here is a day that gives you a chance to both tell and show the boss what you really think of him or her. And, to give your boss the appreciation that he or she truely deserves. So go right ahead and give it to them.....give it to them good! After all, it only comes around once a year.
Gift certificates, baskets by Jackie, or a glass of wine from the bar, Sun Singer has you covered.
Party Perfect - Prism Tumblers
 Creative designs and quality products that add a sense of warmth and
joy to the home. From sophisticated to whimsical, subtle to bold; the acrylic partyware from Merritt USA is fun and attractively designed.
Very popular and very pretty group of acrylic pieces. The images do
not do justice to the beauty of these pieces. In a word, WOW! The
combination of the color tints and the cuts, or "prisms" make for a
very attractive tumbler.
Illini Gift Baskets
Do
you need an Illini related gift for favorite fan? Jackie has made up a
selection of 'Tailgate Specials' - custom gift baskets with Illini
branded products with chips, nuts, salsas and more just right to ease
those hunger pains for a football afternoon.
