Odd & Unusual 2022
Hi all,
I hope you’re well, and we miss you!!
I’d like to start out by saying, the last 2 years have been a true challenge. With the ever changing, fluid, and even contradictory restrictions that we’ve been facing, to be honest, I began to lose interest in planning, hosting, or even attending events during those times. While I understand restrictions are now basically removed, the fact we only had 6 weeks to plan and properly organize The Odd & Unusual Sale before Easter, it just didn’t feel feasible to do it & still keep my head above water.
Since The Original Odd & Unusual Easter Sale is the largest of its kind in Canada, it requires a lot of advanced planning & organization. It just did not make sense physically, financially, or mentally to plan or host our event this Spring. As such, I regret to inform you that we will not be holding the sale this Easter.
It is both personally sad, and even causes me stress and anxiety to be announcing this today. It just doesn’t make sense in order to keep the integrity of the sale without putting proper planning, marketing and organization into making this event the best that it can be.
I truly hope you understand why we’ve come to this conclusion. Hopefully things are moving in the right direction and we can begin to properly plan for the Thanksgiving Sale. Once we are ready to officially announce that, I will do so with great excitement 🤗 Fingers crossed we are in the process of getting back to some normalcy, so we can start planning and advertising events in advance & not be faced with more restrictions or shut downs.
Here’s to hoping you are all keeping very well and healthy ❤️ I truly look forward to seeing all your wonderful faces 😀 and catching up again in the near future. I’m sure we all have lots to share and catch up on.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Jespersen
