Year 15!

Traveling Tea’s fictitious name renewal is this month. Whenever we talk about how long we’ve been open we say “since 2009” as that was our first Full/Real year in business, however the legal origin is November 2008, and we had our First Farmers’ Market event at the St Louis Community Farmer’s Market in December of 2008 at St John’s Episcopal Church on Arsenal.

That makes this month the beginning of my 15th year Sharing Good Tea in St. Louis (and beyond)! I hope to soon add a slide show here with various shots through the years

Remember those days?

Then, in May 2013 we opened the shop in Maplewood, so we are in the midst of our 10th year here!

Then – and Now

In celebration of our years with you, rather than trying to throw a party (that I’m really rubbish at), for the entire next 12 months, we are gifting you with a discount code good for 15% off most teas (any tea that is in the Black, Green, White, Oolong, and Farm Direct categories). Does not apply to teaware, drinks, or the Tea Calendar.

For online ordering, there will be 10 active coupons each month for 15% off – when ordering online: enter YEAR15 at checkout. After the 10th coupon has been redeemed code will be inactive until the beginning of the following month.

For in store shoppers – Tell us Happy Anniversary and we will apply the coupon code! (Also remind us during checkout, because you know how we get chatty with you and might forget!)

I AM So Very Very Grateful!!! – Kateri

Groundhog Day – Early Spring?!

We in the St. Louis area have been without a local prognosticator for too long. In the spirit of Punxsutawney Phil and Shubenacadie Sam, we are introducing Maplewood Molly.groundhog

Maplewood Molly agrees with her Eastern brothers, predicting an early spring.

To celebrate, and warm you through the remaining weeks of winter, we are offering Buy One/Get One specials in our shop this week only (Tues 10-6, Wed 11-6, Thursday 3-7, Friday 10-5).

Buy a cup of tea, get a 2nd cup of equal or lesser value FREE. Buy 1 or 2 oz of looseleaf tea, get additional 1-2 oz free (equal or lesser value). Limited to stock on hand.

Cheers!

New shop – 2707 Sutton Blvd – Maplewood
