Awesome Sales and Fun Events Are Happening This Week!

My favorite thing about writing this blog is going to each of the merchants and asking what they have going on this week.  If only you could see the excitement on their faces!  Since this is the last week of July, there are a lot of sales that will be ending this week, so you need to hurry Downtown and take advantage of them!

Accents Home Décor & Accessories is ending their month long 25% off sale this week.  Next week, be on the lookout for new merchandise straight from the market!

On Friday, July 27^th, Dance Life Dance Studio will be hosting a Latin Dance Party from 9pm-11pm.  It’s only $10 per person, so it would make for a cheap night out!  Since it starts at 9, there is plenty of time for you to have dinner at one of the many restaurants that are Downtown!

James Gregory, “The Funniest Man in America,” will be performing live on Saturday, July 28^th at 7:30 pm at the Martin Theatre.  Tickets are available at the Martin Theatre box office.  For more information, visit www.martintheatre.com or call 850-763-8080.

Do you want a chance to win a $100 gift certificate? Then stop by and shop at Estate Treasures before the end of July! Your name will be entered into the drawing when you make a purchase.  Also, be sure to “Like” their Facebook page for your chance to win the different monthly contests they host for just their Facebook fans.  I know this is taking place next week, but July 30^th is National Paperback Book Day and Estate Treasures is celebrating with 50% off all their paperback books.

When you go to Avenue Sea this week, be sure to welcome Mary! She’s a new sales representative for Avenue Sea (you may recognize her from Harrison House).  Their summer time blue tag mark downs also continue this week and when you show them the coupon (found at www.pcdib.com under Main Street) you can receive $25 off your purchase of$50 or more.  They have new merchandise coming in everyday, so be sure to stop by and see what’s new! On Monday, July 30^th only, when you spend $50 or more, you will receive $20 off (no coupon necessary)! You can’t beat a deal like that!

As they do every week, Books by the Sea has a buy 2 get 2 free special on their authors of the week.  The authors this week are Debbie Macomber, Lawrence Sanders, Danielle Steel, and Agatha Christie.  In addition to this sale, all mysteries are buy 2, get 1 free (excluding Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes book).  You can’t beat deals like this! Be sure to find them on Facebook to see what sales they have each week.  They even have some surprise one day only sales that only their Facebook users know about, so find them on Facebook to stay informed!

Elegant Endeavors has 15% to 75% off within select booths.  This is such a large store (2 stories!) that you can find anything in it and it is even better if it happens to be on sale!

C&G Sporting Goods is also having an outdoor rack sale.  Everything that is on the rack just outside their door is 50% off.  Did you know they also do trophy engraving and have been in business for 62 years?

Relief Skate Supply has their Van Shoes and more brands on sale this week.  They also have decks on sale for $29.99.  With school restarting soon, they will have more sales, so be on the lookout for them and I will keep you posted!

Need some new clothes for the kids?  Sugar Britches in Downtown Panama City has all their children clothes 20% off this week.  They also have $50% off all their jewelry and women’s swim wear!

You may be wondering why I am telling you about things that are taking place on Monday, July 30^th.  That is because the News Herald is promoting “$30 on the 30^th” to help stimulate the local economy.  Consumers are encouraged to spend $30 at a locally owned business on July 30^th that they would not normally spend. 


Businesses participating in this event, such as our Downtown merchants, will have special deals for this day.  Be sure to check out the businesses’ websites and Facebook pages to see what deals they will be having on this particular day. 

Great things are happening Downtown, get out and experience them!
