One Big Sale: East Fork Pottery gave us a code!
Here's what you all say is worth adding to cart.
Hi Geezers,
We left Amazon behind, so you’re not going to see any Big Spring Sale roundups or hauls here.
However, we kept our Amazon storefront live because it is a very well-organized shopping list of recommendations we’ve made (and you’ve made) since we launched Gee Thanks! in 2019. If you google Gee Thanks, Just Bought It! Amazon storefront you will find it. We aren’t updating it, but it is a good archive of past recommendations if you need it.
As part of our mission to spotlight more small businesses, we turned to you for recommendations — and wow, did you deliver. We’ve already chatted with and added several to the Gee Thanks! Flagship, and it’s been such a joy digging in. After sorting through over 500 responses, one small business kept popping up again and again (and again).
East Fork Pottery.
(Want the TLDR? We have a code now — and they almost never do sales.)
Here’s why all of us love East Fork Pottery: They partner with local nonprofits, grassroots groups, and individuals advancing racial equity, community healing, and liberation from oppressive systems, and all of their 100+ employees earn at least $22/hr.
Here are the 3 most Geezer-recommended pieces:
The Mug:
East Fork says, “Hold it, and you’ll get it.”
The Popcorn Bowl:
East Fork says, “Eat crunchy things on the couch, toss a mighty salad, order extra everything for your takeout ramen and serve sides at the table in the bowl whose name only hints at all the places it will go.”
The Tiny Cup:
East Fork says, “Tiny Cups (formerly known as Toddler Cups) are the perfect welcome into the world of "special objects" and learning how to handle them.”
Enjoy the code, enjoy supporting East Fork’s wonderful business, and enjoy shopping know your purchase is recommended by hundreds of Geezers!
