16 Reasons to Shop at Family Christian
I have been going to fc stores for years. One of the biggest things I love about them is that they are a not-for-profit business. That means that everything over the cost of operation goes to charities. There are various charities they support, listed below. They are also a Christian store. Whether you agree with Christianity or not, the good the company does for not only our society, but others around the world, makes a huge difference in many lives.
There are many great products both in the store and online. This is gonna sound crazy, but my absolute favorite product that I’ve ever bought at Family Christian is a water bottle that pops open with the push of a button and locks so that it won’t pop open when you don’t want it to! I went back for a long time trying to find them again and they didn’t have them in stock, but I’ve recently found them on their website so I ordered some extras. Within two minutes I had the shipment guarantee and the notification that they had received my order. The water bottles I ordered weren’t in their warehouse, so there was a little notification on the site (before I ordered) letting me know that it may take longer to receive. I love that they had that easily seen! They also sent me a guarantee within minutes of my order that covered a lot more than I ordered!
Right now there is an awesome Summer Sale of Buy 1, Get 1 50% off on ALL books, movies, and music for the entire family both online and in store! The sale will be going on until August 25, 2016. Also, don’t forget to check out their clearance section. It’s always got something and is typically fabulous!
