Hey folks! Don’t forget, the Brownstoner Holiday Party is this Thursday, December 3rd! We are celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, Festivus and the Winter Solstice all in one shindig (we try to be all inclusive). The party will take place at The Bell House – 149 7th Street, between 2nd & 3rd Avenues, in Gowanus or if you prefer, West Park Slope or GoCaGa (Brooklyn brokers, I’m lookin’ at you!). Our festivities will begin at 6:00pm and go on till the last Brownstoner drops.
Please remember that we are having a Goofy Gift Grab-bag event, so bring one or two ridiculous dollar store items to add. PLEASE DO NOT SPEND MORE THAN ONE DOLLAR ON EACH GRAB-BAG GIFT! If you can, please wrap the gift or have a small gift bag (available at dollar stores for about $.33 each) to place the gift in. We need as many people as possible to participate in the grab-bag so please please please remember to drop by the dollar store this week and pick something up. Use your imagination and choose the funniest thing you can find in there!
In addition to the grab-bag, we are also doing a Funny Flash-back. We ask that attendees bring an old photo of themselves. Find that picture where you have big hair, hideous 70’s clothing, a diaper on your head (or all three in one photo if you’ve got it!). Give a laugh, get a laugh! Fear not, we won’t be keeping your photos…we just want to laugh at you while you laugh at us 🙂

There are a bunch of dollar stores in the city on 14th St btwn Ave A and Ave B.
Trying to get the future Mrs. Dahill to come to the party this time.
She will love you Snappy.
Isn’t there a dollar store on the west side of Court, south of Joralemon, not far from Borough Hall? That’s where I’m headed, so I hope it doesn’t exist only in my vivid imagination.
Wish we still had Scouting Party in the South Slope. Tons of great novelty items for under a buck.
All the credit goes to Snappy, who has been shouldering most of the effort!
Great ad. It is so fun to sit back and let others do this! Thanks for all your hard work.
This should be one happening shindig.
I also believe there is still one in Manhattan on 14th Street between 6th and 7th Avenues (north side of the street).
Where do you find a dollar store?
1. Several dollar stores on 5th Avenue in the South Slope
2. Huge one on Hoyt Street between Fulton and Livingston in downtown Brooklyn.
3. Prospect Park West near (I think) 17th street
4. Target at Atlantic Center has a dollar bin.
