As thousands of Shluchos descend upon Crown Heights for their annual convention, local businesses are welcoming them with discounts and specials.
Judaica store Hamafitz is offering extended hours and special sales, and Hamafitz Stam has Megillahs on sale.
Many Kingston Avenue stores, such as the new housewares store ‘Welcome Home’ are offering discounts and special hours by appointment.
Mink Jewelers is offering a free raffle ticket to every shlucha for a new piece of jewelry from their selection. Each Shlucha will receive a raffle ticket in their resource fair booklet, or they can pick one up at the store.
On Wednesday, the first day of the Kinus, Shluchos were already seen stopping by at Mink’s Eastern Parkway store to receive their tickets, Mink’s owner told COLlive.
“Shluchos have been dropping by all day,” he said. “One Shlucha from Beijing, China, arrived with her 10 year old daughter, who asked me, ‘why are you giving us a free ticket?’ I told her, just because you are a Shlucha.”
The drawing will be held on Sunday at 3:30 pm, so that the winner can wear her new watch or jewelery to the banquet that evening.
You raised the bar, there all staying open late for the Shluchim, you still have the best customer care by far, keep up the good work. We’re proud of you, your family.
