Kobo Canada_Devices

We might be a little excited to announce our new partnership with Kobo ebooks. Why? Because it gives you access to 6 million (Yes, million. We counted. Really.) ebooks and audiobooks.

But wait, there’s more!

Kobo has recently introduced an all-you-can-read offer for just $9.99 Canadian/month. And the Kobo reader? You can also use it to borrow ebooks from Chatham-Kent Public Library. Plus they have versions that are waterproof, so you can kick back in the bathtub with a glass of wine or cup of tea and a good book, and ignore the world for a while.

How cool is that? Bookmark our Kobo page today, and start browsing!

Donation Made!

Earlier this year, Turns & Tales ran a Dice for Doggos fundraiser which asked local residents to bring unwanted boardgames to the PAWR animal shelter. For every game brought in, Turns & Tales promised to make a donation to the shelter.

We’re pleased to announce that this initiative raised $500 for the shelter. Money raised will to go restocking supplies needed by the animals.

We’ve been assured that the dogs have promised to share the funding with the cats, and maybe even the rabbits.

This will be the first of many community-oriented projects for our store.
