The Weatherford Daily News, in cooperation with the Weatherford Area Chamber of Commerce, is excited to present Weatherford’s holiday promotion for 2020.

Weatherford’s Chris-Giving will be a fun and surprising way to spread holiday cheer.

The promotion launched November 11 and shoppers can begin to register with participating sponsors to win surprise gift boxes delivered to their doorsteps. Merry Mondays will launch November 16, and this is when the surprise boxes will be delivered to people’s front porch.

Fifty boxes will be delivered to doorsteps filled with one of three holiday cheer theme gifts, and each box is worth about $200 each.

These boxes include holiday feast boxes which will be filled with meal kits for Thanksgiving and Christmas meals, Holiday for Kids boxes will be filled with some of the most popular toys on kid’s lists for Christmas 2020, and Holiday Cheer boxes which will be filled with sentimental gifts such as hot chocolate, Christmas music and movies, Gingerbread house kits, house slippers and much more.

One of the Weatherford Daily News sponsors for Chris-Giving is The Cup, located at 103 W. Main St.

Customers can register at The Cup for one of the 50 boxes to win. These boxes will be delivered at people’s front door steps, by Santa Clause himself.

Tyler Hughes, owner of The Cup, said they sell a lot of coffee and sandwiches. They have a full sandwich menu, available from 10:30 a.m. to close. Their most popular sandwich is the chicken salad, and the cattleman turkey club. Customers can call in ahead of time to pick up. The Cup does not deliver anymore, but they do offer take-out orders, and will hold the order for as long as the customer needs them to.

The local coffee favorites are the tan and white, white chocolate caramel, caramel macchiato, turtle, and the snickers, peppermint mocha, s’mores, black & white, zebra, and raspberry delight.

However, Hughes said he makes more tan and whites a day than anything else combined.

All of the local favorites are flavor combinations they can put into any of the drinks. The drinks can be made to be hot, iced, frozen, or however the customer wants it.

The Cup’s hours are, 7 a.m.to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday. When SWOSU is out for holiday breaks, they close 6 p.m.

Visit The Cup on Main Street to get a sandwich, coffees or to enter to win one of three Chris-Giving boxes. Hughes said to start, “having your kids watch for Santa,” because he will be delivering these surprise boxes very soon.
