Are you done with your holiday shopping yet?
Is your email inbox full of marketing emails from national retailers? It’s hard to resist because we’re all busy…it’s so much easier to just buy your present from a big box store or national retailer when they’re offering BIG discounts and even free shipping/guaranteed shipping before Christmas.

1 week left before Christmas!
Shop Local & Independent: Plaid Friday
