2011 has been a wonderfully busy year for Sip... and we are not resting on our laurels. In the New Year, we are planning a number of new events such as new wine classes, a relaxation class, a rewards program, a new and improved wine club and even a few cooking classes. Sip...has truly enjoyed sharing this year with our amazing customers and we look forward to sharing more with you in 2012! To say thank you, this last week of the year is dedicated to all of you:

1^st: Don't miss the last few days of our annual holiday sale. Buy 6 bottles or more and receive a 20% discount. This sale ends on December 31^st at 9pm. So, if you love a deal and need beverages for the next few days or weeks, stop by. We would love to say thanks, in person, for all your support.

2^nd: Still need a few gifts, buy a gift card! For every $50 you spend on a gift card, we will give you a voucher (valued at $30.00) to attend one of our wine classes. So you get a gift just for being generous.

3^rd: Free Tasting Friday. I know we usually offer free samples on Friday, but this Friday will be special. We are sampling 3 amazing wines. These are not your everyday wines; we are talking 3 amazing wines that would make a collector giggle. It's too soon to tell you what they are, but we will tweet and e-mail the list on Thursday. Did I mention they will be on deep discount too? So grab your friends and join us for a great after work/winter break evening.

4^th: A New Years Eve Party. Are you like me? Do you hate going out on New Year's Eve for one of the following reasons; 1) amateur diners, 2) the long lines and "included" Champagne, 3) pretending to understand your drunk, crying friend who has no one to kiss at midnight, and 4) realizing your just as annoying as your drunk, crying friend because you insist on staying somewhere just to kiss at midnight.   Well, let us solve all of your New Year's problems. On Saturday, December 31^st from 3pm to 9pm Sip...a wine store will be celebrating the New Year by having a party. We will be serving pints of Bell's Winter Ale and Glasses of Dominio Pinot Noir. $20.00 per person will get you 2 glasses or 2 pints, appetizers to nibble on and live music. Now that's a deal to celebrate. If you reserve your spot (919-467-7880) and pay before December 31^st, your name will be entered in our $100 gift card drawing. I'm telling you we just can't thank you all enough for your support. Cheers to a Happy New Year!
