Small Business Saturday on November 25 is a good reminder that you really can do most of your holiday shopping in the neighborhood this year. Take a good look around and you’ll find plenty of options. You can support local businesses in a couple of ways:
Buy one of the many products - from books to clothing to art work – available along our newly renovated E. Warren business corridor or on Mack and Harper. Some stores and organizations are even selling their own signature clothing, mugs, water bottles, and other promotional products.
What if a store sells goods or services that aren’t easily wrapped and placed under the Christmas tree? Or perhaps you want to let your friends and family choose their own presents. Maybe you want someone to try out your new favorite business. These are all great reasons to buy gift certificates from businesses in or near Morningside. They make great stocking stuffers.
Whether you’re shopping for a bookworm, fashionista, handyperson, pizza lover, craft cocktail expert, crafter, a family member with a wicked sweet tooth, or a friend who can’t wake up without caffeine, there’s a local shopping opportunity for you. Here’s a partial list of neighborhood businesses to check out. We’ll be adding more in the coming weeks.
