Thirsty Third Thursday

So with all the new items coming in - my mom put together a new display of all our Lolita and Leslie Hand Painted wine glasses and I think the display is going to drive me to drink! I am about to head over to Anytime Wines right now!:) Could you work next to this all day and not want a glass of wine? So our Thirsty Third Thursday promotion is 15% off any wine glass on this display. Promotion is good for today only - February 19th, 2009 - so come in by 6 pm to take advantage of Thirsty Thursday! Here's to it being 5 o'clock somewhere!

Thirsty 3rd Thursday: Holiday Wine Stoppers

Holiday parties starting in early December? (I know I have at least one to attend the very first Saturday in December!)

This month's Thirsty 3rd Thursday blog special is SO for you!



You and your fellow vixens of vino can save 15% today in the store - until 6pm - on all festive holiday wine toppers just by mentioning this blog post!

Nice, huh?

Thought you might think so!

PS - They make a FABULOUS hostess gift. Be sure to snag a few for yourself if you're playing the role of hostess with the mostess this season!

It's About That Time!

I'm finalizing my plans for a weekend with the girls celebrating our favorite holiday from our college days -Halloween!

Which city we'll be terrorizing for the weekend still remains a surprise (along with my oh-so-awesome DIY costume) but there's one secret I'm sharing: today's Thirsty 3rd Thursday special at Swagger!

That's right - 15% off Halloween bottle toppers just by stopping in the store today before 6pm today and mentioning this blog special! (No coupons to print, duh... Swagger's SO gone green!)

So you've got the costume (check), the spooky décor (check), and the delish treats (double check), but who's got the wine that you're obviously going to adorn with these great bottle toppers?

I Am SOOOOO Excited...

...that I can't even stand it!

Do you know that there is only one week standing in between me and the return of my beloved COLLEGE FOOTBALL?

The first thing to do on my "pre-football" to-do list was to make sure I had all of the appropriate gear in stock:1. Season tickets (check)
2. Full conference and outside favorites' schedules organized (double check)
3. Tailgating paraphernalia...WAIT!

Even though I've got enough tailgate gear for... well... a football team, I'm a firm believer that too much of a good thing is a GOOD THING! (Besides, I just know that some of my collegiate favorites from Swagger will disappear over the season, so having a little extra never hurts.)

Lucky us, Mandy has picked one of her personal tailgating favorites for this month's Thirsty Thursday blog special: magnetic koozies!



What's so fabulous about these koozies and what the heck is the Thirsty Thursday blog special?

Here's the skinny: these koozies make full hands a problem of the past and the Thirsty Thursday blog special is a fun drinking game that we like to play... where Swagger shares special party and tailgate deals with our blog readers. What's not to love?

The magnetic koozies are on sale for 15% off today online (until midnight only!) and in the store (until 6pm!). Just use the coupon code koozie15 at checkout online and mention this blog post in the store to save on your purchase.

And as far as Thirsty Thursday goes... be sure to add our RSS feed to your favorite feed reader so you don't miss out next month!

See you at the tailgate!

"It's that kinda daaaaaaaaaaay"

I think every girl (whether you're a country music fan or not) should go download the tune "It's that kind of day" by Sarah Buxton. Right. This. Second. Here's an iTunes link to make it super simple to add to your iPod today!

"Stayed out about two hours too late,
And now it's hard gettin' out of this bed.
Man, my boyfriend was a pain in the butt last night,
Now he's an ache in my head.
Stubbed my toe on the dresser an'I guess,
It's too late to shower an' do my hair.

Yeah, throw a ball cap on;
Hell, half the day is gone.
And nothin' else could go wrong, whoa, oh.
Fifty bucks is all I got:
When times are tough, it's time to shop,
An' my credit card'll buy a lot, whoa, oh.
What's another bill to pay?
It's that kind of day.Hey, hey, hey, yeah!"

That girl suuuuure knows what she's talking about! I bet she'd enjoy Swagger's Thirsty Third Thursday blog specials, too.
Save 15% off anything alcohol related! Barware, glasses, cocktail napkins, mixology books, Sprayology party relief spray, and more! Since Swagger's gone green, just mention this blog special in the store to take advantage of this retail therapy session!

In Case Anyone Needs a Reminder...

Just throwing that out there... take it or leave it (but I do hope you take it ).
And the beauty of this little blog update - in true "I'm Ready for the Weekend!" fashion - is the above pictured wine stopper is this month's Thirsty 3rd Thursday blog special!
Grab this subtle wine stopper (AND ALL OTHER WINE STOPPERS for that matter) for 15% off today at Swagger until 6pm!
Be a good friend and stock up for any of your gal pals who may also enjoy a "subtle" reminder too!
Just print this blog or tell 'em Gina sent ya and you needed a reminder that a little fun never hurt anyone!

Everything Old Is New Again!

I can spot a DIY restoration project a mile away. (I like to think of it as my little way of saving something from the landfill that I can actually find some function and beauty in!)
My favorite vintage find lately are the "Knob-Stoppers" vintage wine stoppers that have recently been added to the Swagger collection! The coolest thing about these Knob-Stoppers is that each piece is unique so you can keep collecting as many as you'd like and each piece given as a gift (for the hostess-with-the-mostess hosting this weekend's dinner party!) is sure to never be duplicated!
And for those of us who have the great motivation to start DIY projects, but never seem to have the time to finish, this vintage find comes ready to go!
Haven't purchased your first Knob-Stopper? Today's Thirsty Third Thursday blog special gives you a great excuse to stop in Swagger and pick up your first (or third!) vintage wine stopper at 15% off!
Feel free to share this blog with anyone who needs a little retail therapy this week and invite them to share a few glasses of wine to put the stopper to good use tonight for some *extra* therapy!
*Please print this blog and bring it in to Swagger with you - today only - from 10am until 6pm!*

"This Sweet Concoction is Smooth as Molasses..."

If a little Kenny Chesney doesn't get you in the mood to get outside and enjoy some good times with friends and family then how about The Embers at North Hills tonight?
You can always tell when the winter weather is finally movin' out of town by the explosion of fun "to-do"s that have recently been added to your calendar - I know mine is full clear through May with outdoor concerts, backyard parties, graduation cook-outs, and more! If you've antied up to the role of "hostess with the mostess" for any of these occassions (or any Thursday night "Girls Night Out") then this week's Thirsty Third Thursday blog reader's special is going to make you smile as much as the mint juleps in your guests glasses!
Today only, take advantage of 15% off all Lolita glassware at Swagger from 10am until 6pm (in the store only) and never be afraid to mix and match! Your guests will all want to know where you picked up such stylish pieces and if you don't tell... I won't either! Unless of course... you want to!

*Please print this blog and bring it with you to the store to receive 15% off Lolita glassware at Swagger today!*
