We've heard it before...Sale, Sale, Sale! Well, this time of the year, some stores are knocking down their prices or offering unlimited sales to make room for new inventory. These sales are not to be missed, but you better hurry: many end this Sunday, March 7.
Rainy Day in Vineyard Haven is having an All Linen 50 percent off sale and just when you thought it couldn't get any better, you can buy any one item and get a second item of your choice for 50 percent off. With their wide selection of cards to kids' toys and kitchenware to nautical gifts, you can fill that birthday, anniversary or wedding wish list with ease.
Another not to be missed is Kiss, Kiss, Hug, Hug: The Art of Love at Featherstone in Oak Bluffs. This great display of artwork by Vineyard artists reflects love and romance by utilizing reds, flowers, and romantic scenes. Bring a friend or loved one to share in its beauty, but hurry: tomorrow, March 5, is the last day.
The Green Room on Main Street in Vineyard Haven is having their big winter sale, offering 20 to 75 percent off. Find North Face, Burton snowboarding company, Patagonia, dansko, Free People, and so much more. With such great options of shoes, socks, outerwear, essentials, and candles, to name a few, it is definitely worth a peak. You should start thinking about what you might need for next winter now and be ahead of the game.
Vineyard Vines in Edgartown celebrates their first Islander Sale, featuring 75 percent off this Saturday and Sunday, March 6 and 7, from 8 am to 6 pm.
In Oak Bluffs, get 30 to 50 percent off everything at Craftworks during their March Madness sale, which lasts all month.
Finally, Claire Murray in Edgartown is holding its Annual March Madness Sale. Not only can you save 50 percent and more storewide, you can also enter a free drawing to win Claire's 7x7 La Mer Rug (valued at over $1,000). Keep in mind that Easter and Mother's Day are just around the corner.
A quick thank-you goes out to Hinckley & Sons Ace Hardware for their fabulous B.Y.O.B. (bring your own bag) sale last Saturday. Hopefully you all made it to Vineyard Haven to fill up your bag and receive 20 percent off your purchases. I know I did.
Next week we will be getting ready for St. Patrick's Day on March 17, so if you know of any sales or must have items, write in. We would love to share your suggestions.
