Fayes closed Wednesday July 7th!


Fayes is only closed 2 days a year- Christmas and the Fayes camping trip. This time it's not Christmas.

We're taking a little trip and will be closed Wednesday, July 7th. Never fear though, we'll be back open Thursday, July 8th at 7a.m.

This means there will be little adjustments for movie return times:
- New releases rented Monday, July 5th are now due Thursday, July 8th by 7p.m.
- Regular movies rented Sunday, July 4th are now also due Thursday, July 8th by 7p.m.

See you Thursday, bright and early!

Who are the people in your neighborhood?: Zuzy and Rick


Every week at Fayes we choose 12 movies, loosely based on a theme, that customers can rent for FREE when renting another movie. (And you thought the free only came once a year.) Included in this weeks selection of "How" to videos is locals, Zuzy and Rick's project, "Cooking for the Clueless". On our food obsessed block, this couple's fresh approach on bringing in the pros to teach the delicious basics is a welcomed treat.
And after sifting through their site grab some groceries and make a date for a dinner and a movie.

Thanks


THANK YOU TO EVERYONE for all the FAYES VIDEO LOVE this weekend.We gave out 900+ cups of ICE COFFEE!come back and see us sometime!

To All The Dogs Who Entered In The Cutest Dog Contest...



Thank you one and all, furry and bald, for participating in our Cutest Dog Contest. We had a record-breaking number of entries, and even though most of them didn't stop by for the parade, it was a blast all the same.

Every dog who entered in the contest is deserving of one of our unique Fayes collar decorations, a token of thanks from the store. Come by the shop and claim your decoration. They're cute.

Congratulations to Lolly, Dante, and Stella, our winners, but also to the rest of the Fayes dogs. We had a very cute bunch this year. Check them out for yourself in the store window.

Fingers crossed we can pull out another one like this next year!

N.I.N.Y. -- Leaving NY, going to UT, coming home to CA.


My first year of school is coming to an end, I'm wrapping up the semester now with only a black and white photo critique and a ten page Art & Contemporary Culture final paper to turn in.

On friday, I fly to Salt Lake City for a two week road trip through the state. It should be an amazing trip, filled with mountains, meadows, and Mormons.


I will take lots of pictures. After all, this will be my first look, in person, at the Grand Canyon.
From UT, I fly to SF. I cannot wait to be back on the Fayes bench, drinking coffee, chatting, and hanging out with the dogs.
I'll see you all in a couple weeks!
