Save the Date {Shopping with DTSB}

Girls Night Out by downtownsusiebrown on Polyvore.com

What? A night out shopping with Downtown Susie Brown and your girlfriends, sisters, mother, mother-in-law, daughters, whoever - even your dog can come!

Why? Spring is here and so are fabulous new items to choose from. Support your community and have fun doing it. Plus one night only discounts and giveaways, giveaways, giveaways from some of my favorite places!

How? Bring a donation to PaperDolls {80 henry Street} for Franklin Community Center's new M.O.M.'s {Methods of Motherhood} program which provides services for pregnant and parenting teenagers in Saratoga County {remember - May is the month to honor Mother's!}. Their services include parenting classes on all sorts of topics from breastfeeding, infant safety, CPR, to budgeting. They also provide the girls diapers, formula, baby food, etc. All the essentials a mother needs for a baby and to get them started on the right track. What mom can't use a little support??? So, bring a donation of diapers, wipes, formula, cash, you get the drift and that is your ticket in {please no bags of used clothes - think food pantry and baby essentials}. PaperDolls will then give you a coupon book filled with coupons from participating stores {PaperDolls, Aggie's, Violet's, 80 West, Lucia, Dawgdom, Speck, Compliments to the Chef, Impressions, and I'm just getting started}. Then you shop, shop, shop until you are ready to drop! And once you are.... Meet us for cocktail and food specials at Cantina {432 Broadway} where we will announce the winners of the giveaways. We're talking Spa packages, jewelry, handbags, gift certificates and a few more. How do you win? Leading up to the event I will be posting a giveaway once a week until the event {Wednesday}. Leave a comment and I will enter your name in a randomly selected drawing which will be announced here on Friday of each week - so even out-of-towners have a chance to win. Another opportunity.... The night of the event you will be given a punch card. The more stores you visit and punches you receive the better chance you get at the first place giveaway. There will be a first, second and third place giveaway - because you can't help it if you fall in love with a store and need to try on a few things! Everyone will have a chance to win.
