It's the most wonderful time of the year....which is to say that it's dark outside at 4 PM and it's super cold! Yup, the holiday season is upon us, and that means it's time to start thinking about gifts, decorations, and of course, store hours. But before we dive into those - we've got some upcoming special events to talk about first!
Hey there folks! We’ve reviewed your feedback and heard you loud and clear. Let’s talk about what we heard, good and bad, and how we’re working with your feedback to make our events even better than before.
Attention all events attendees! We’re taking the month of July to get a little feedback about our in-store events and how we might make them better. To that end, we’ve got a couple of surveys for you. Fill em out, get entered into a chance to win $50 in store credit, and help us shape the future of events here at Phoenix!
Board games are a big part of our community here at Phoenix! And with our 10th Anniversary happening, we’ve got three of our biggest board game meetup groups together to celebrate one big community meetup. And lo - idea for the Phoenix 10th Anniversary Board Game Meetup was born! For more details on when things start up and what to expect, including special discounts and board game giveaways, read on!
In just a few weeks, Phoenix will pass a new milestone - 10 years serving Capitol Hill and the greater Seattle community. Normally around this time we like to celebrate with a comic book signing, some free comic books, and a special store-wide sale. And we’re still gonna do that! But Phoenix is more than just comics. So for our 10 year anniversary, we’d like to dedicate the whole month to a celebration of every aspect of the store. We’ve got a lot planned, and we hope you’ll join us for every part of this that speaks to you!
