Guys, Wrap Up Your Holiday Shopping

J & J Pharmacy and Gifts will host Men’s Night Out on Thursday, December 8 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.

Okay men, here’s your chance to stay on good terms with your wife and have an opportunity to score a flat-screen TV to be ­given away to one lucky husband on Thursday, December 8. J & J Pharmacy and Gifts is hosting its first Men’s Night Out from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at their store located in Claremore’s Ne-Mar Shopping Center.

“We want to offer men an opportunity to purchase a Christmas gift for their wives, something they really want,” says Patsy Daniel, owner. “Their wives will be able to turn in a wish list to us before that night.”

During the Men’s Night Out, one winner will go home with a flat-screen TV. Refreshments will also be served.

J & J’s regular Christmas Open House is set for Sunday, December 4 from 1 to 5 p.m. In addition to refreshments and food samples, the store will give away door prizes each hour.

Christmas shopping at J & J is always fun, as the store carries many exclusive lines not found anywhere else in town, according to Patsy. In addition to their ­variety of Vera Bradley personal accessories, the store now carries a wide array of Flaunt, an alternative to Vera Bradley. The Flaunt line, which is an Oklahoma company, is more sophisticated with added bling.

The Flaunt line includes purses, totes, cell phone cases, iPad covers, overnight bags, toiletry bags, hipsters, notepads and other accessories. “It’s a different look from the Vera Bradley line, a soft-sided line,” she adds. “The company behind Flaunt also has two other lines we carry, including the Faith collection of ­crosses and the Drake collection of beautiful canisters and other kitchen accessories.”

If you’re a cool chick and want to let people know who you are rooting for on the sidelines, J & J carries the Cool Chicks Wear that began with two sisters and a T-shirt that says, “Cool Chicks Wear Orange” for OSU fans. The two women have now expanded their line to include “Cool Chicks Wear Crimson” for OU fans. Their authentic, sporty and fun products include a variety of styles for ­different tastes.

If you love unique jewelry, J & J carries several lines you won’t find anywhere else locally, including Ashleigh George, a South African artist who is inspired by the richness of ­scripture, along with intricate patterns, shapes and colors to create her unusual pieces. “These higher-end pieces are very popular with ladies whose husbands come in to buy the handmade pieces as gifts for their wives. Our newest arrival is the initial pieces.”

J & J also carries the Waxing Poetic jewelry line of bracelets, necklaces and initial charms, as well as a line called Pick Up Sticks, which offers a more whimsical look that is less expensive, according to Patsy, who says both offer a way to “create your own story.”

If you’d like to own a piece of jewelry created by Anna Koplik, who designs earrings, bracelets and necklaces for the competitors on “Dancing with the Stars,” J & J carries some of her handmade, vintage-inspired, costume Swarovski crystal ­jewelry. The collection is ­timeless and classic.

Monogrammed and ­personalized products for just about anyone on your shopping list are popular gift ideas. From writing pads to Tervis tumblers, your gift can be made more personal with a choice of patterns, colors and names as well as initials. “The Tervis tumblers are guaranteed for life because they are made from the same material as airplane window shields,” says Patsy. “We do need at least two weeks advance notice to get your personalized products back in time for gift giving.”

For more unusual, unique gift and Christmas decorating ideas, take your Christmas shopping list and head to J & J Pharmacy and Gifts, where you’ll find Mud Pie “texting gloves,” Lollia ­fragrances and crèmes, ­cookbooks, Tyler candles and much more. You won’t leave empty handed.
