SHOP CONCORD GIFT CARDS ARE BACK!

 Hurray! Rejoice!

SHOP CONCORD GIFT CARD PROGRAM RETURNS FOR HOLIDAYS
The City of Concord and the Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce are bringing back the popular SHOP CONCORD e-gift card program to support the city’s small businesses by encouraging residents to shop locally.
SHOP CONCORD helps local businesses increase sales while giving a gift to consumers and providing a boost to the local economy. Win-win-win!
SHOP CONCORD relaunches Monday November 25, thanks to a $20,000 contribution from the City of Concord to supply a bonus gift card with every purchase.
While supplies last, get a FREE $50 Shop Concord bonus card with every $100 gift card purchase, get a FREE $25 Shop Concord card with every $50 gift card purchase, or get a FREE $10 Shop Concord card with every $20 gift card purchase. Gift cards can be used for purchases at any participating business... like Flying Colors Comics!
This cool deal is limited so make sure to jump on it when it goes live on Monday November 25. “As holiday shopping ramps up over the next few weeks, we are excited to bring back our popular Shop Concord program to support local businesses and provide a special incentive in the form of a bonus gift card,” said Concord Mayor Edi Birsan.
"The Shop Concord program has been an overwhelming success since its launch in November 2020. The positive participation and feedback from both customers and local businesses have exceeded expectations, making it a key initiative for supporting our community." said Kevin Cabral, President/CEO of the Greater Concord Chamber of Commerce.
The e-gift cards can be purchased on the Shop Concord Yiftee page, which includes a list of participating merchants. The cards purchased can be redeemed at any participating Concord business. The digital nature of the gift cards allows customers to split the original and bonus portions to keep for themselves or gift to others via text or email.
“We love the Shop Concord program!” said Joe Field, owner of Flying Colors Comics & Other Cool Stuff. “Bringing back the Yiftee gift cards for holiday shopping will give us a welcome sales jolt at our new location while delivering a truly super value to our FlyCo Faithful when they buy and use the gift-cards at their favorite local shops… like Flying Colors Comics!"
SHOP CONCORD gift-cards are available beginning Monday November 25. Buy 'em here: https://app.yiftee.com/gift-card/concord

It's a treasure map leading to fun...

Hey, look!

We've heard some of our FlyCo Faithful are having a tough time finding our new location so we hope the map below is helpful to you.

Maybe our new location is confusing because we near another Trader Joe's. Truth is, that's a good model for us, being near an active grocery store will hopefully allow us to find new people to join the flocks of our FlyCo Faithful.

We hope you'll visit soon!

Important Flying Colors Dates!!

Special Event!

Saturday August 24 11AM-7PM is the Moving Sale at Flying Colors.

Just to be clear, this will NOT be a massive blow-out sale. We'll have a couple of specials and we're sure you'll find something to get.

Saturday August 24 4PM
Live Blues music from Ranchero Supreme, featuring bluesman and comics artist Robert Stewart (AFTERBURNER, Tales of the Cool & Wicked).

Given these are the final days of Flying Colors 36 years in our shop at Treat Blvd & Oak Grove Rd, we thought it would be appropriate to be singing the blues.

But rest assured, FlyCo Faithful, when we open our NEW shop, we'll be singing much happier tunes!
