ESTEVAN — The Estevan Mercury is proud to once again present a popular pre-Christmas tradition in the southeast, the Christmas Catalogue.
Returning for its sixth season, the catalogue boasts some perennial favourites and quite a few new businesses.
"As in years past, the Christmas Catalogue takes many hours to put together, but it is one of our favourite features," said Estevan Mercury sales manager Christine Jones. "We are very excited for our readers to view it."
Also new for this year's catalogue is a collaboration with our friends at the Carlyle Observer. The Christmas Catalogue includes a few businesses with locations in both Estevan and Carlyle.
"We felt that by printing 11,000 copies that go out to over 40 communities across the southeast corner, the businesses that participated would have more coverage and all of our readers can shop locally for their holiday gifts this year," said Jones.
Our Christmas Catalogue has something for everybody. Not only does it have Christmas gift ideas for men, women, kids and seniors, but it can help people plan their Christmas gatherings, find ideas for holiday décor, and get big gifts for the house or yard. It continues to be a showcase of many things that Estevan's business community has to offer.
The Mercury has also switched up its annual Christmas promotion this year with a Christmas Bingo. Our readers can visit the participating businesses and pick up their Christmas Bingo card. Then they can read the Estevan Mercury and/or the Carlyle Observer – whether it be the print editions of each or online through the digital edition section at Â鶹ÊÓƵ.ca – to find the winning bingo numbers.
There is a grand prize for a blackout, and smaller prizes for a cross, any two lines or any single line. Everyone who chooses to play can enter their non-winning card for a prize.
All entries can be submitted to either the Estevan Mercury, Carlyle Observer or through [email protected]. Please see our ad in this week's paper for all the details.
