The Sale Begins!
As most of you have already heard, Notables Stationers in Edmonton will be closing by the end of May as Suzanne is retiring after 28 years! Our customers are all very sad, but have shown us so much amazing love and gratitude these last few weeks. We are very thankful for and to each and everyone of you.
How will this unfold? The sale begins on Saturday morning, April 19 at 10 am. Yes – at that time and at that time only, whatever is left in the store (we have been busy, busy) will be put on sale. All fixtures and equipment will be available for purchase as well. Please make sure to use all outstanding gift certificates, credit notes and loyalty points by the end of April.
What about invitations? As of March 31, 2014, we stopped taking invitation orders in store. We are looking at referrals and other methods so as not to leave our customers “in the dark”. There may also be the possibility of some continuation of service. We will update our website with further information.
My pen is broken, what do I do? We will be listing referral stores in Edmonton for pen refills and repairs on our website. We will also be listing our repair depot information.
We are still here and open for business! Please call or email us with any questions or concerns. Ask for Suzanne. The phone line will be disconnected at the end of May, but I will still be more than happy to answer any questions via email after that time.
With much gratitude and many fond memories,
Suzanne

Moving On
After almost 28 years of providing our loyal customers with the best in greeting cards, gifts and custom invitations, Notables Stationers will be closing our doors at the end of May 2014. Suzanne Davis, however, is looking forward to pursuing a new lifestyle. Okay – she is ready to retire!

We want to ensure that all of our customers are taken care of over the next few months. Gift certificates, credit notes and loyalty points can all be redeemed until our closing in May. The loyalty program will be terminated immediately, but redemption of points will be available till store closing.
Being Grateful
From birth announcements to wedding invitations – you have invited Notables into your lives by letting us create your invitations – and for that, we are forever grateful. Little ones that came behind the counter to get their free stickers became trusted employees. Employees, sales reps and customers have become friends.
Moving on is bittersweet. Moving on is sad but also an exciting time with new opportunities for Suzanne personally and for the High Street. This spring and summer, the High Street will be welcoming three new businesses, wonderful additions to the 124 Street neighborhood that we all love.
Party
Keep in touch over the next few months to be updated on sale specials, closing date and THE PARTY! All customers, staff present and past, sales reps and suppliers are invited to celebrate a very special store in all of our lives. Please join us!
We look forward to seeing you over the next few months!

All Is Bright

Get ready for a full day of hot cocoa, sleigh rides, Edmonton bands such as Shout Out Out Out Out and Wool On Wolves, ice sculptures in the making and so much more!
