Let's keep the "thanks" in Thanksgiving



Despite the 24 hour Christmas music radio stations, store openings at 4:30am and the jingle bells you hear in your head... there is a national holiday the day before Black Friday.

Yes, Virginia, there still is a Thanksgiving.

We are excited for Cyber Monday, Hannukah, Christmas, Boxing Day, Kwanza, Festivus and any other winter holidays. But we want to take a moment to reflect and say “thank you” to you for your interest, support and patronage.

So, get a second helping of pumpkin pie, loosen your belt and give your mother a hug.
Let’s keep the “thanks” in “Thanksgiving”.

With gratitude,
The MOM’s, ENJOY-ees and everyone at 
ENJOY, AN URBAN GENERAL STORE and Urbangeneralstore.com.


Happy Movember! 
ENJOY and Urbangeneralstore.com support Prostate Cancer Awareness Month and Movember. Can’t grow a mustache? Shop for one here!

ENJOY will be closed Thursday, November 22, in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday. We will reopen Friday (Black Friday) at 10am with our ever-changing selection of great gifts, cards and stocking stuffers. And, as always, shop 24-hours a day at urbangeneralstore.com.

Our Lucky 7

When we opened the doors of ENJOY, AN URBAN GENERAL STORE on a hot day in July 2005, we could have never imagined that we be so welcomed and embraced by the residents, businesses, and visitors of Lincoln Square.  We sought to open a shop with a rotating mix of unexpected, fun, and affordable items that offer the perfect gift for any occasion. We strived to embody the spirit of general stores of the past, becoming a familiar, friendly place where the neighborhood goes to pick up what they need and discover what's new. We didn't want to just be located in Lincoln Square, we wanted to be part of it. We have seen the neighborhood change (and grow) in the past years, and we are excitedly looking forward to what the future holds.  Thank you for 7 amazing years. Without your support and patronage we, literally, would be not be here today. Here’s to many more lucky years. We hope you'll help us celebrate our birthday all month long.
