Nob Hill Park & Shop | Thursday, December 15

Shop Nob Hill for a Neighborhood-Wide  Sale Event December 15, 2011 15% off our entire store December 15, 2011 Open late 12 - 9 pm Buy Local & Save! Community Bands Together to Create Nob Hill Park & Shop Thursday, December 15th Many businesses are open late and having 1 Day Sales. Nob Hill Retailers need your help! The 17th annual Nob Hill Shop and Stroll happened on December 2nd as planned, but hurricane-strength winds and brutal cold kept most shoppers at home.  It was bad for business, and it couldn’t have come at a worse time for Nob Hill.  Your Nob Hill neighborhood is struggling.  Shop and Stroll is usually one of the biggest sales days of the year for most area retailers.  For many merchants, 2011 has been the most challenging year they’ve ever faced. Jay Steinberg, owner of Birdland shares, “for the first time in 17 years I’m on the verge of going out of business.” He is far from alone.  Many stores have closed over the last few years in Nob Hill. Matie Fricker, Co Owner of Self Serve Sexuality Resource Center, and lead organizer of Park and Shop explains, “We’re about to celebrate our store’s 5th anniversary, and it should be a time for celebration.  But it’s never been harder just to stay open. When I started talking to neighbors, I realized that we are not alone.”  Martha Somerville, the owner of Papers for 15 years has seen the neighborhood change. “I grew up going to mom and pop stores--I always loved the creativity and individuality I found there. It feels very different shopping in a store that is locally owned. You can feel the passion of the owner, their heart is in the business and you really feel the love in how you are treated.”  Unfortunately, Martha has been forced to move Papers into a smaller space in order to save her shop.  “The sales just aren’t coming into support the cost of doing business.” Martha fears that without a change Nob Hill could end up looking like a ghost town.  What's happening in Nob Hill is happening all over America, and through Park & Shop, the merchants of Nob Hill hope to make it easier for folks to keep their money in their local community.  According to Wayne Story, VP of  Communications and Marketing for the Albuquerque Independent Business Association (AIBA) “Albuquerque area consumers and businesses are spending too much of their money on businesses with ownership in other states, and the money is flooding out of New Mexico. It's filling the pockets of out of state internet businesses and national companies whose profits leave the state and never return.”  Whether or not you can shop on Thursday, December 15th, Nob Hill merchants hope that you will choose to support locally and independently owned small businesses. By choosing to support Nob Hill and other locally owned businesses you can effectively keep vitally needed resources here in New Mexico. For sales and details, go to: Nob-Hill-Park-Shop-Event-Info on Facebook Nob Hill Park & Shop Sales and Specials     The list of businesses offering big sales on December 15th is growing. Some participants are: Revolver, Kosmic Trading Post, Self Serve, T ‘n’ A Tobacco, The Herb Store, Cowboys and Indians, Birdland, Gearwerks, Olo Yogurt Studio, Stone Mountain Beads, Terra Firma, Rhythm Dance Company, Rockit Hair Studio, Toad Road, The Yarn Store, Tres Boutique, Sole Art and Antiques, Bath and Body Distro, Stilo, Ecco Gellato, Bath and Body Distro, Astro Zombies, Papers, Zap..Oh!, Form Gallery, Aqui-Nob Hill, The Barber's Shop, Stone Circle Massage and more.

May is Masturbation Month. Do Your Part(s).

We're not kidding, and we didn't make it up.  Better than any hallmark-imposed celebratory month, Masturbation Month May is a perfect way to energize for spring and start great conversations at the water cooler!

It all started in San Francisco, of course, when Good Vibrations wanted to support the cause and healthy results of masturbation.  In 1994 Surgeon General Joycelyn Elders rightly suggested masturbation is a safe and healthy sex practice for young people.  For that radical statement, she lost her job.  I love that in a 2005 interview, Elders told CNN, she would do it all over again, too.

In 2008, Self Serve hosted the film Passion and Power: The Technology of Orgasm at the Guild Cinema.  We also sponsored the first masturbate-a-thon in New Mexico.  And yes... a woman did win the contest. 

Why Masturbation Month?

No, it's not a sneaky plot to sell more vibrators or make people giggle.  Masturbation is one of the most healthy, safe and educational activities a human can experience.  There are lots of positive aspects to masturbating.  Yet even today it is still embarrassing, shame-filled and taboo to talk about.  Just about everyone does it, but nobody talks about it.  Not until Masturbation Month that is!

Self Serve is celebrating with a sale at our Albuquerque shop and a discount for online shoppers this month.  Use coupon code maylove for 15% a one-time order, or shop our store for sales all month long.

Hint!  May 15th is double-discount day at the shop!  Stop by to enjoy... then go home and enjoy more!

Some great facts and benefits about masturbating:

• Masturbating is safe sex
• Don't wait for someone else to do it for you - Take pleasure into your own hands
• No risk of pregnancy
• Enjoy sex without having to please a partner
• Learn what turns you on
• Get to know how your body works
• Show a partner what you like
• Relax before bedtime or take a well-deserved study break
• Enjoy the health benefits of orgasmic fun!  Fewer migraines, relaxation, lower blood pressure, and the list goes on!
