To increase business and awareness of St. Mary’s thrift ministry, Angels' Treasures has become an official “Perk Partner” with the Cape Cod non-profit, LoveLocal which supports and advocates for small businesses. Perk Partners promote local shopping by offering special discounts for lovelocal card members. This is our first year we are participating in this initiative and are excited to welcome new community members through the program. Perk Cards are $30 and offer discounts perks at over 120 local businesses. Card members will receive 20% off one item of their purchase at Angels' Treasures. Do you feel lucky? One parishioner will win a FREE lovelocal Perk Card. Stop by the shop and enter your name in the drawing. The winner will be drawn on Sunday, July 26 during fellowship hour.
