Greetings!
Hello!
Forward this e-news to some friends.
new:
Sprig Eco-friendly toys!
Give your little one the tools of
today to help them build a little greener. Sprig Toys Eco-Trucks are
made in Europe to exacting standards and use the exclusive Sprigwood™
wood-plastic composite. Each truck uses bits of recycled wood &
plastic materials to create an earth-friendly toy that is durable,
highly mechanical and has less impact from manufacturing on our earth.
The scooping action and rotating chassis of
the Excavator turns serious digging into child's play. The Loader does
the trio's heavy lifting, and the Dump Truck gets the job done with its
tilting cab, locking bed and swing-out tailgate. The playful,
cartoon-like designs of our chunky vehicles make them irresistible to
preschoolers, and parents love the eco-friendly, battery-free,
kid-powered construction. Recommended for ages 3 and up.
These are going to be a winner for holiday gifts! Get 'em while you can. :)
Now in stock:
Long Sleeve Side Snap Undershirt
These
favorite side snap undershirt w/ fold over cuffs makes dressing
effortless! Everyday and every season comfort. Made with the finest 100% organic Egyptian cotton.

Consignment News
Consignment update for September:
We ask that you be sure of the following:
1. all items have been freshly and thoroughly cleaned;
2. you have not packed more than 30 items; and
3. you have called, on the day you are coming, to confirm
that we can take more of what you have to bring.
It is especially important, at this time of year,
that you call before you leave the house to bring consignments,
to ask if we have room for more of what you want to bring.
603 886 6727
(Consider putting our telephone number into your cell phone?)
We do answer the telephone starting at 9 AM.
We usually look through consignments:
Mon 10 - 6:30
Wed 10 - 6:30
Fri 10 - 6:30
Sat 10 - 6:30
We are accepting Fall items --for baby to teen and for pregnancy, and now for young adults-- that will be worn in October and November:
This is a great time to bring good-quality, Halloween costumes and school clothing.
Reminder: we accept Halloween items ONLY IN SEPTEMBER, and we do not accept any holiday or snow items until after September 1st. We will not set up our snow gear area until later in September, so there is no hurry to bring snow gear early in the month.
Below is a list to use as a guide as to what you will want to bring to us in September. We
suggest that you always call ahead to confirm, as during a given week,
we may have too much in a particular size.
- Halloween costumes that are good quality and very clean.
- Fall, school clothing and accessories
- jackets and hoodies
Regarding equipment and furniture:
please call ahead to confirm that we have room for more of what you
have to sell. (We do have to be sure that all equipment and furniture,
that we sell, has not been recalled. You may want to save yourself
some time, by checking www.cpsc.gov before you pack the items in your
car.)
Remember, we no longer have a consignment toy department. (There were too many recall issues making it impossible for us to know what toys are and are not OK to sell.)

Help the Rotary Club of Nashua raise money for community projects:
The Rotary Club of Nashua will launch
its' first ever online Auction! Online bidding begins October10th, 2009
and runs until November 10th, 2009 at noon. The Rotary Club of Nashua is well known for its' charitable gifts to numerous
organizations and causes in the greater Nashua area. Just this past year, one hundred children were each matched with a Rotarian for an evening of holiday shopping. Not
only did the children receive $100 to purchase gifts for their family,
but they spent an enjoyable evening with a "friend" from Rotary. Our
club members are proud to drive by the new Rotary Common in the heart
of down town Nashua. The club donated $100,000 toward the creation of
this green space for Nashua. Each Thanksgiving our club members form a
caravan to get out and deliver a complete Thanksgiving dinner to
families who would not otherwise have a holiday meal. This year we sent
our overseas service men and women care packages from home that brought
many of them to tears of joy. We sponsored safe "Prom night" at the
Nashua High schools, hosted a fishing derby for children with special
needs, provided two Nashua High School graduates with
$10,000 college scholarships and gave over $45,000 to charitable
organizations to support their work. If there is a need or a gap in
services for the families in our community our Rotary will be there to
lend a hand and ease the burden.
Your participation in this exciting
Auction will not only make your holiday shopping easy, but you will be
helping us to continue our 88 year history of service to the families
in our Nashua community. Look for more details in October.
