Celebrating You: Customer Appreciation Event, May 1-4 at The Shoe Hive/The Hive

As a small business owner for more than 21 years there is one thing I know for sure — the only reason The Shoe Hive/The Hive is still around is because of our amazing customers. We have survived recessions, pandemics, and so many ups and downs! The women who have supported us and kept our doors open for the last two decades have become our friends, and we know a going-out-of-business sign would’ve been hung on our door many years ago if it weren’t for their loyalty.

We’re always trying to figure out ways to let our community know how much we appreciate them. So how do you say thank you? Well, for one, you just say it. Now more than ever, we’re grateful for each and every person who walks through our door and decides to shop small instead of online or at a big box store. 

Last year we hosted a customer appreciation day and it was so much fun we decided to do it again! Starting Thursday, May 1 through Sunday May 4, you can come pick up a scratchoff card to win either a prize or a discount, earn double loyalty points and take some treats from our snack bar. 

What is our snack bar? When we go to market we visit different showrooms. Each time the showrooms offer the same snacks and we always laugh that they are very unique to each brand. Ulla Johnson always has healthy organic treats like BjornQorn and Anine Bing has Sockerbit that is fittingly an LA-based Scandinavian candy company. 

So stop by this weekend and grab some treats, special discounts, prizes and extra loyalty points to go towards your future purchases. Don’t forget Saturday is Alexandria’s Spring Fling where there are four different Block Parties of fun activities and events at 30 different stores!
