💌 Because love isn’t generic – and your card shouldn’t be either!
This Valentine’s Day, skip the boring shop-bought rhymes. We’ll help you personalise your card to say what you really mean (even if it’s “Sorry I ate the last biscuit again”). ✍️

✨ Plus, if you use our personalisation or gift-wrapping service, you’ll be entered to win a bouquet from Vinetta Floristry – perfect for keeping the romance alive or smoothing over last year’s Valentine’s Day disaster. 🌹

📅 Deadline: 11th February – so get a move on!
💌 Not just a card – a masterpiece of love!

🎁✨ Personalised Gift Wrapping Service – We’ve Got You Covered! ✨🎁

Last Christmas Eve, just as the clock was ticking down, a customer walked into Newsrack Maidstone with 15 gifts needing to be wrapped—yes, FIFTEEN gifts, and it was December 24th! 😅

But here’s the thing: when it comes to creating smiles, our team thrives under pressure. With festive cheer (and maybe a few cups of coffee), we took on the challenge with a smile and delivered some exceptional results. Each gift was beautifully wrapped, complete with matching ribbons and personalised tags. The customer left delighted and ready to enjoy Christmas morning stress-free! 🎄🎁

✨ Whether it’s one gift or 15, our personalised gift wrapping service is here to make your presents shine. We take pride in creating packages that look as good as what’s inside!

Drop by the shop and let us take the hassle out of wrapping—it’s just one more way we’re here to make your celebrations extra special. 🎀

It's upsetting for any small business to receive reviews like this, particularly when you know how hard your team works and how great they are.

As independent businesses, our survival depends of our reputation - and inconsiderate reviews like this made in snap anger can really harm us.

If you could give us any gift this Christmas, all we'd ask for is a Google Review.

We'd really appreciate it.

Here's a link: https://g.page/r/CRlQ-RF0aJI2EBM/review

Thank you so much for everything!

Newsrack 2.0’s First Christmas Dinner – Here’s to Many More!

Here’s to our amazing team, and to all of you who make it all worthwhile! ❤️
