Extra attention is given to callused areas, and warm booties and mitts encourage the penetration of rich moisture deep into your skin. Your nails are trimmed and shaped and when the exfoliating masque is removed, we'll massage our fragrant Rose Moisturizer into your feet, hands and limbs, leaving you smooth, silky and ready for romance. Top this off with a sparkling beverage, some delicious chocolates and you are in for a VERY SPECIAL DAY.

David Anthony's
542 North Main Street
|
Christmas of 2009 has passed, New Years Day 2010 has passed and soon I will be on my way to market to replenish the inventory at David Anthony's which has been reduced by my loyal customers. More than I can say, I appreciate your support to my store this past year. As we all know, 2009 was difficult for all concerned; however, due to the faithfulness of my customers, I anticipate a better 2010. I am excited about going to market and the home decor -- as well as gift items -- that I will find there.
Please take time to read the 3/50 Project stated below. As most of our merchants are "Brick and Mortars", I believe you will find this interesting.
3: Pick three businesses you'd hate to see disappear, then return to them. Pick up a little something that makes you smile. That's what keeps those places around.
50: Commit $50 of your current monthly spending to locally owned businesses. If half the employed US population did that, it would generate more than $42.6 billion annually.
68: For every $100 spent in locally owned, independent businesses, more than $68 returns to the community. If spent in a big box or chain, the number drops to $43; spend it online and nothing comes home.

Wishing each of you a HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
