Dear Friends,

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and most importantly best wishes to you and your family from the entire Small Dog family! Often, too hidden in the commercialization of this time of the year is the message of Peace on Earth and Goodwill towards all.

Sometimes when I have trouble falling asleep I try to dream up plots for the science fiction book I will never write. The other night I came up with some seemingly benevolent aliens that came to visit and decided they needed to take all of our children away and teach them how to be good people so our culture could get past the cycle of war, hatred and poverty. I do not like the message children get from the actions of adults and it seems like we are reaching a critical time to re-visit that message of peace, goodwill and love.

Back to commercials…sorry, but I do have a business to run here :). It has been a good holiday season with a lot of Apple products being the go-to gifts. We got a relatively small shipment of AirPods in and they were literally sold out within minutes. This is our first year with the Apple Watch and that seems to be a great gift idea. Our stores will have extended hours this weekend and we still have some great buys for the last-minute shopper.

This week’s Kibbles & Bytes Exclusive features 7 special ordered 13-inch non-TouchBar MacBook Pros. These were ordered for a customer who changed their mind and needed more storage. Unfortunately, they open them all anyway before returning them. So, we are classifying them as demo machines but they have actually not been used. These have 16GB of ram, a 256GB SSD drive, the upgraded 2.4GHz i7 processor and are silver. Normally, we are selling this model for $1899.99 but this week only while supply lasts you can have one for only $1499.99!
