🎄❤️ WOW! What a day! THANK YOU! ❤️🎄

A HUGE thank you to everyone who came along and helped make today’s event such a success! We absolutely loved seeing you all, having a good catch-up and, of course, feeding you! 🥪☕️

Events like today really do make a difference to our community-owned Village Store. Your support helps keep us going through the quieter months, and you get to pick up some fantastic Christmas presents in the process. Win-win! 🎁🛍️

🏆 A big congratulations to our lucky winners!

🎉 David A won £150 in our members-only raffle!

🎉 Sara L won a whopping 7,500 points!

👏 And an extra-special thank you to our AMAZING volunteers!

There’s so much hard work that goes on behind the scenes to make days like today possible. From the cash-and-carry runs and getting the shop ready, to the extra cleaning sessions, all the preparation and, of course, our brilliant buttie makers! 🥪

You all give up your time to make our little Village Store something really special, and we couldn’t do it without you. ❤️

Let’s keep that momentum going and continue supporting our little shop!

But for now… we think the Christmas playlist has earned a little rest. At least until December! 🎶🎅😂

Thank you all, you’re amazing! ❤️

🎄✨ Look who’s popped out of retirement…! 🎅🏼❤️

Our favourite Christmas elf has made a very special return to Dobcross Village Store to supervise one of the most important jobs of the year… CHRISTMAS! 🎄✨

And let’s face it, when it comes to bringing the festive magic, his special touch is simply irreplaceable! There really was nobody else who could compete for the job! 🎅🏼

In between recovering from surgery and enjoying his well-earned retirement, Tim couldn’t resist popping back to sprinkle a little of his Christmas magic around the store! 🥰

A HUGE thank you to our very own Christmas legend for making the special visit and bringing the festive sparkle to Dobcross once again! ❤️🎄

Some things just wouldn’t be the same without you, Tim! ✨

🎁🍫 AND DON’T FORGET… A LITTLE FESTIVE TREAT FROM US! 🎄

We’ve seen a few grumbles online about AI generated adverts and social media posts lately… but honestly, if we weren’t using AI, this is probably what our marketing would look like!

And whilst we completely understand that AI isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, when you’re a small business, every penny counts and every minute matters!

When you’re trying to run a village shop, serve customers, order stock, stack shelves, balance the books AND somehow find time to be the marketing department… AI is a pretty handy tool!

Anyway, whilst you’re admiring my incredible graphic design skills… how about helping us keep your community-owned village store going for years to come? ❤️

Because here’s a little thought…

If every customer spent just an EXTRA 50p each time they visited, imagine the difference it could make to our shop!

We’re not talking about spending a fortune…

🍬 One little bag of pick ‘n’ mix

🍊 One satsuma

🍬 One packet of mints

That’s it. Just one tiny extra purchase!

50p might not seem like much, but when everyone does it, those pennies soon add up. And collectively, they could make a HUGE difference to the long-term future of our village shop. ❤️

We’re not a big supermarket chain. We’re YOUR community-owned village store.

So next time you pop in for your milk, bread or newspaper, why not pick up one little extra?

And if you all keep supporting us, who knows… we might even be able to retire my artistic talents and afford a proper graphic designer one day! 🤞

Following our successful AMM today, a few things were highlighted that we’ll be working to resolve.

One of these was a lack of clarity around our Loyalty Card scheme, so we wanted to share all the information in one place. 💚

Our loyalty card is our way of saying thank you for shopping local and supporting Dobcross Village Store. Every time you use it, you earn points, plus you’ll have the chance to benefit from our monthly bonus and bi-annual hamper draws.

The image below explains everything you need to know, including how to join, earn and spend points, what happens if you forget or lose your card, and how your points can even be donated to support good causes.

We hope this clears things up, but if you have any questions, please just ask one of our team or volunteers in the shop. We’re always happy to help. 😊

We will be adding this poster to our information boards also ❤️
