COVID AND THE BOOKIES  
 
As the situation in our county (Arapahoe) and city (Glendale) changes and evolves, as related to COVID-19, we will continue to adapt as well. If you visit our store you will notice changes as we strive to not only comply with regulations, but exceed best practices in order to allow in-person visits to our store as long as possible. As this situation is very fluid and new orders announced regularly on what retail establishments can and cannot do, we ask you to continue to monitor our social media to get the latest updates.  
 
One thing we can't stress enough is that there are expectations of supply chain disruptions for many industries in November and December. The advice we are getting, and that we would pass along to you, is to do your holiday shopping sooner rather than later to ensure ample supply and shipping times.   
 
Also, please note, that until further notice we cannot accept returns. The moment we are able to safely change this policy, we will alert everyone.  
 
As always, we appreciate your support of The Bookies and hope you look to us for all your books, games, and toys needs right now. But more than that, we hope you and your families are staying safe.

It's An Umbrella! No, It's a Wine Bottle! No, It's Both! 
 
   
Sometimes we have a new product that is so cute we just have to share it with you! We've got a collection of new umbrellas that, when closed, look like wine bottles! You can see the entire collection HERE, or come by the store and see them in person. Did you know you need your umbrella to disguise itself as a wine bottle? We didn't, either! But we do, and so do you!
