Just a reminder as everyone bustles about shopping in the next few days: shop at the stores you want to stay open.
Small, local stores may not be able to compete with some of the deep discounts of the big box stores or online stores, but we continue to support our communities every day with donations to the schools, Little League, and more. (Not to mention that we happily collect sales tax, which help go back to our towns to make them safer and better places to live. )
If you like a local business and want to be able to shop there next year, please spend some of your holiday dollars with them, because every dollar counts.
