Evertonians are in for a Christmas to remember, as Everton Football Club launches a series of ‘money can't buy' experiences for shoppers in the run up to Christmas.

For the next three weeks, starting this Thursday 26th November, two first team players will be in both Everton stores to sign any merchandise purchased from the store, adding a touch of magic to any Christmas gift.

This Thursday will see Leon Osman and Jack Rodwell at Everton One, whilst shoppers visiting Everton Two at Liverpool One can expect to see Jo and Marouane Fellaini. All four players will be in store between 5pm – 6pm and will be happy to sign any item purchased from the store, including Everton Home Shirts, which as a special offer in the run up to Derby Weekend are reduced by £10.

Commenting on the player signing evenings, Ray Evans, MD of Everton's retail partner Kitbag said, “We hope to be able to put a smile on the faces of Evertonians on Christmas day when they receive a present with a special Christmas message just for them from one of their favourite players.”

This Christmas, Everton has the perfect gift for every fan; toddlers will love the Everton Bears and Everton Rubber Duck, teenagers can enjoy listening to music from the Everton IPOD Docking Station, the exclusive range of jewellery and watches will please both him and her and for something extra special, there is the Limited Edition 25th Anniversary Box Set Shirt and Medals.

More player appearances will be announced shortly.
