Happy Holidays to you and yours! The holiday season is here and as
usual we've selected a number of wonderful goodies for your stockings: many
old favorites are on special as well as new items you're sure to love!
This edition of the newsletter is a tiny bit late because Marge recently
underwent a minor surgical procedure and will be out of the office for a
while, so we've taken over the newsletter, and we're going to keep it short
and sweet so we can concentrate on packing and shipping orders for timely
Christmas arrivals! (We being Courtney, Christi and the rest of the Nature's Gift
crew!)
Keep reading for information about our Free Shipping offers, as well as our
final 10% on the 10th
anniversary sale, the arrival of our new deluxe inhalers,
great last minute gift ideas, holiday shipping deadlines, back in stock
items, our annual 12 Days of Christmas Gifting, and links to aromatherapy holiday recipes you'll want to try!
December Deals & Discounts:
10% on the 10th anniversary discount-Save 10% on your entire order! For the
final time, take advantage of Nature's Gift monthly 10th Anniversary
celebration by
ordering on December 10th and entering the promotional code "anniversary" (without the
quotation marks) and clicking apply before submitting your on-line order.
Remember no matter what time zone you are in, the code must be in the
shopping cart in order to be applicable. (Hint, our shopping cart is hosted
on the west coast, on Pacific Time. It may be midnight where you are, but the
time on the shopping cart determines when the discount applies.) Huge savings for the holidays! We
reserve the right not to discount certain items, including books, fast buys,
bulk items, and the energetic kit.
Free Shipping - To help entice you to purchase all your Christmas gifts from
us this year, we're offering FREE PRIORITY SHIPPING on orders over $250.00! This is
for domestic shipping within the United States only, please, and the offer
cannot be combined with other discounts, such as the anniversary discount.
If you use two discounts, we will apply the larger of the two discounts
only.
Double Discounts - If you place an order over $500, using a discount code,
you'll receive FREE shipping and a discount. That's potentially $75 or more
in savings you could realize.

Hot New Products:
Deluxe Personal Inhalers-Our inhaler blanks are so popular, and easy to use that we
decided to bring in some "deluxe" inhalers. We have beautiful gold and
lavender inhalers that look like a tube of lip stick. Unlike our white
plastic inhalers, these can be used again and again. For an extra burst of
energy during the day, use an inhaler with Pink Grapefruit. Trouble
focusing at work or staving off an unwelcome headache? Then try the deluxe
inhaler with our Peppermint. These are just two recent examples that
customers have shared with us! Create old fashioned "smelling salts"
with SineEase, Eucalyptus, the oil or blend of your choice, for your own
use, or as gifts.
Back in Stock Soaps:
Due to popular demand, two of our best-selling soaps are back in stock, just
in time for the holidays- Oatmeal milk and honey and Simply Sandalwood. Both can be found on our specials page at
http://www.naturesgift.com/special.htm.
Gift Wrapping Available through December 15th:
Also, a reminder that we do offer gift wrapping, if you don't have the time,
or you just don't want to fuss with it. The deadline for gift wrapping
on orders is December 15th.
Christmas Shipping Deadlines for Holiday Delivery/Express Mail Service:
According to the postal service, the last day for having your package
arrive in the US by Christmas when shipped Priority Mail is December 21st.
Therefore we are asking that you please place your Christmas orders on or
before December 19th. We try our best to ship orders within 24
business hours, but as business increases because of the holidays, we
sometimes need another day or so. The Express Mail deadline is Friday,
December 23, so we ask that if you are planning on express mailing a
package, you place your order on or before Thursday the 22nd. And in case
you didn't know, Express Mail orders go to the front of the pack.
We charge an additional $15 for express mail shipping which not only
covers the additional postage, but our "rushing" of your order.
Our Holiday Schedule:
Nature's Gift will be open for business until noon, Friday, December
23rd. Orders placed on the 22nd will be shipped on the 23rd. We
will be closed both for the holidays and for inventory during the week
between Christmas and NewYear's, to reopen Tuesday, January 3rd. Orders
placed from the 23rd on will be processed to ship on January 3.
12 Days of Christmas Gifting:
Each day from December 25th through January 5, one lucky client will be
chosen to receive a very special gift. Among the gifts we have set
aside for our 12 Days gifts this year are one of our blown glass amphoras, a
Nature's Gift Spa Set, Lavender Bliss Bath, Simply Sandalwood
Soap and Sandalwood Shave Soother (which makes a wonderful body oil,
ladies), a copy of The Blossoming Heart, a Hydrosol Sampler, a Spa Scenter Diffuser... all sorts of goodies. But if you don't place an
order, you can't be selected as a winner. Even though your order won't
ship until after New Years, we think you'll find it worth waiting for.
Charity of the Month:
Oprah's Angel Network!! Oprah's Angel Network is the first charity we chose
when we began our Nature's Gift charitable giving and we thought it about
time to contribute again! If you are not familiar with it, this is a
wonderful organization that does so many things to help women and children
all over the world. One of our favorite parts about the organization is that
every dollar donated goes to the actual cause, none of it goes towards
administrative fees. Courtney has been researching charities for a few years
now, and this is something that is extremely rare to find. If you place an
order on any Wednesday during December, 2% of your purchase will be donated
to Oprah's Angel Network. If you want to contribute without waiting for a
Wednesday you can add a dollar to your order through our donations page.
