S: Is for White Saturday

Traditionally, today is known as 'Black Friday' but for those who are looking for a great value with a gift to others I have the perfect suggestion. So let that Turkey settle as Housing Works is launching a “White Saturday” Shopping Event! For most of us the wild-eyed mob madness of Black Friday shopping leave us trembling and traumatized? To restore exhausted Black Friday survivors,Housing Works will be offering comforting free cookies and hot chocolate in a relaxing holiday-jingle-free atmosphere. Nov. 29th all seven stores—which have been totally restocked for the holiday shopping season—unveil incredible one-of-a-kind, you-can’t-believe-it gift finds. Here's just a handful of what you’ll find at the White Saturday event:

Gorgeous Valentino column dress: $130
Stunning embroidered Roberto Cavalli Dress: $175 (see photo!)
Reversible chinchilla coat: $1,500 (see photo)
Classic Asian-style wooden bird cage: $65
“Rose” old-fashioned metal furnace: $165
Vintage satin-floral upholstered parlor chaise: $275

Not only will you find one of kind gifts, help save the environment by recycling but all Housing Works profits go to lifesaving services for homeless and low-income New Yorkers living with HIV and AIDS. Housing Works is the largest community-based AIDS service organization in the United States. Since 1990, they have provided lifesaving services, such as housing, medical and mental health care, meals, job training, drug treatment, HIV prevention education, and social support to more than 20,000 homeless and low-income New Yorkers living with HIV and AIDS.
