Walking in the store feeling an abundance of choices

Walking in the store feeling an abundance of choices

It’s the perfect storm this year…Christmas and Hanukkah falling on the same day. But there still is time for us to help you choose the perfect gifts.

Shopping online is easy; you get ideas, you get deals, and you get it fast.  Big retailers can offer this just because they are big and have volume.  But the little guy (us, Olive Connection) has to offer something different to be worthy of the time and energy it takes to schlep to a store.  The merchandise has to be the best in the category, and the environment has to be inspirational.  The service has to be personal. That’s what we strive to do.  Who says it does not matter…I believe customers respect good retailers.  SOOOOO  we try hard to make our store happy, fun, and inviting.  Come see us…it is a winter wonderland.  I guarantee you will leave with something you did not expect to buy.

Grab and Go…need fast and easy and beautiful.
