Fairhaven Coin Program

This is so exciting!!! Fairhaven has become one of the few areas to be a part of the Hometown Coin programs. This program was started in Anacortes and it is a fun way to help support locally owned businesses. In Fairhaven there are 20 businesses participating and here they are -

• 12th Street Shoes
• 13 Nails & Spa
• 4 Starrs BTQ
• A Lot of Flowers
• Bay to Baker Trading Company
• Bellingham Tennis Club
• Blue Horizon
• CreativiTea
• Fairhaven Fish & Chips
• Fairhaven Toy Garden
• Katie's Cupcakes
• Pacific Chef
• Paper Dreams
• Reference Media
• Southside Trends
• The Barbershop
• Three French Hens
• Village Books
• Wild Blueberries
• Whimsey

So in a nutshell how this works - you go to any of these businesses and spend a certain amount (amounts vary by store) then you get to have one of these cool coins. The coin can then be redeemed in any of the businesses for fun discounts. These discounts will change all the time so it will be fun to find out what it is. Right now, we are offering an additional 10% off any of the boots that are already on sale. Since most of the boots are 30-40% off now, not a bad little additional savings.

The Bellingham Herald just ran an article on it today - check it out -
