The Great Giftsby

Stay safe everyone!!

Hearing of small businesses closing their doors absolutely breaks my heart because I know how much they pour into their stores and how they want to make a living from their passion! I think we have the greatest community in Dunedin and we are so grateful every time you shop local- it keeps our dreams alive!

We are still dreaming about all of the delicious mocktails crafted by our talented Downtown Dunedin mixologists for our 2nd Annual Mocktail Walk & contest!! Sea Sea Riders came in first with The Living Room a SUPER close second and Sonder Social Club in third!! Huge thanks to all of the competitors for their hard work and creativity and for welcoming the alcohol free crowd! Mark your calendars for next year’s event… Sunday September 14, 2025!!!!

I was super emotional receiving these pictures from our former sales assistant Clark’s Basic Training graduation eve and more emotional knowing it is 9/11. The world is full of evil, but it’s full of brave young men and women who sacrifice time with their families and choose to risk their lives to fight for the freedom we enjoy every day. This is what makes America Great! We are SO PROUD of you Clark and you are already our American Hero! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

Happiest of birthdays to our sweet Sales Assistant Anna!!!!!! We feel like she has gotten two years older already in the 4 months she has worked here! From the moment she came into the store, she shined bright like a diamond! Her personality and talent and drive prompted Elena to offer her a job the day they met! We are so happy Anna accepted that job offer! We can’t wait to see her growing and achieving new things!!! Happy Birthday, Anna from your Great Giftsby family! Keep shining!

This article sums up the Dunedin Experience perfectly! Although she should have talked about how many amazing and unique gift shops we have in town!!! 😉 Loving her imagery!

A little corner of Scotland in the Sunshine State Dunedin is a town of cyclists, shrimp sandwiches, craft breweries, and cocktail happy hours. With pastel coloured cafes and seashell-jewelled…

We are excited for BIG things happening at our sister store!!!! Our House!!!

You know we only close for something major!!! Our big news reveal is coming next week! Make sure to visit The Great Giftsby today for all your shopping needs!

If the weather is giving you the blues, fight them off with this beautiful new blue sea glass dolphin set! It just arrived in store today!

Only 2 more days of the Freedom Tax where you can get your Goodr sunglasses with NO SALES TAX!! So many new releases and limited editions are available and they go FAST!! Rebecca stocked up on her faves earlier this month! We love saving you money and keeping you looking fresh and super fly!!

We are closing a little early tonight to catch the end of our Singing Shopkeeper Elena’s performance with Wayne Levy at The Dunedin Smokehouse until 8pm 471 Main Street.
If you need a gift, our sister store Our House will be open until 9pm at 475 Main Street. We will be open regular hours tomorrow! 10am-9pm.

True story-
The US19 Sign Guy is an artist who is well known for painting thought provoking/controversial art on his building in New Port Richey where several thousands of drivers pass by every day. When a car drove THROUGH his building, he decided to use it for ad space to pay for the repairs! Elena jumped at the opportunity to be a part of this legendary wall with so many other great businesses. The ads are already working… we had a customer, Randi, who reached out and made the journey down to shop for gifts in both of our stores (and is also one of the nicest people we have ever met!) Thank you Adonis for helping us make new connections- so cool!!!

We know we aren’t supposed to get political, but our friends at Pavilion nailed this collection and we wanted to unite our audience with a candidate everyone can back…. “My Dog for President 2024! “ Zeus accepts your nomination and will work hard to earn that vote! 🐶 🇺🇸 *Available soon in store!!

Let’s pretend it’s cold 🥶 , shop for Christmas 🎄 and watch Hallmark movies! From July 20th to 31st we are offering 15% off all Christmas merchandise and $1 wrapping paper rolls to get you prepped for the season!! We may even sing you a Christmas Carol (upon request!) Let’s get in the spirit early!! 🎅🏻 🤶🏻

We have been asked so many times if our Singing Shopkeeper performs anywhere besides inside the store and out front once a month… and now we are excited that announce she will be performing with the one and only Wayne Levy at The Dunedin Smokehouse! All attendees will receive a special offer for both of her stores!! You will love the BBQ and burgers at The Smokehouse (even impossible burgers!) Fun is GUARANTEED! Mark your calendars!! July 28 from 5-8pm! Wayne Levy's Cool Jazz

Love was in the air for Michael this weekend as he proposed to Laura for the second time- 29 years later- with one of our beautiful Larimar rings! We love sharing these memories with our guests and we wish them many more years of magic ahead!!!

It’s the Second Friday of the Month!! That means Dancing in the Streets tonight with our Singing Shopkeeper from 6-9 right in front of the store! Plus stay tuned for an official gig happening later this month in Downtown Dunedin!! 🎶

We turned THREE years old yesterday!!!!!

We want to express our deepest gratitude to our amazing customers who have continued to support us and enabled us to grow to a second location this year!!! (Our House a very fine house)!! That means double the fun and getting to see ya’ll twice some days!!!! We look forward to more happy days ahead!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and paws!! 💙🩵🎁🐾🐶
