Small Businesses to Shop and Support This Holiday Season
On November 19, 2020 by Megan FolsomThis holiday season is a perfect time to support small shops and businesses, who rely on the income.
Instead of spending all of your budgeted holiday money at huge chainstores… consider spending some of it at these small businesses, where someone is guaranteed to do a happy dance or smile every time an order is placed.
For a lot of families, their small business is their only income. PLUS, their items are picked, made and shipped with personalized care, and their customer service is generally the best!
Honestly, buying from small shops and businesses is such a great experience for all involved!
*Also, remember to order as early as possible from them, as it’s generally one person, a family or a very small team fulfilling orders.
**Share this list with your friends and family, or add some of these items to your wishlist that you’re sending to your family members. Let’s help as many hard-working, business owners as possible this year!
