Dear customers and friends,
After five years of serving the Old Town Elk Grove community, we are sad to announce our closing. Our last day of regular operation will be Thursday this week. Starting Friday, we will be selling off our equipment, furniture, fixtures and small tools. Thank you for your support over the last five years. I have come to know a lot of you and I feel very blessed. We will continue with our loose leaf tea business on the internet. Our web site www.teasforfundraising.com is for fundraising sale, but the same teas will be available for retail sale to the public. We are still working on the retail sale web site, you may if interested, contact me via the teasforfundraising.com to send me a message if you wish to place an order or call me at (916) 686-6757. I wish you all God's blessings.
Sincerely,
Sharon Santucci
Boba Tea and Gifts
