If you’re already thinking ahead to the holidays, you’re not alone. The warm and fuzzy feeling of the holiday season, it something positive to look forward to – as long as you’re planning ahead when it comes to gift giving that is!
If you’re working on upping your gift giving game in 2020, we can’t encourage you enough to consider shopping local whenever possible. Personally, we love that gifts purchased from small local businesses come with a story behind them and the fact that so much of your money spent stays in our local community, keeping Buffalo and Western New York’s small business community alive, especially at a time like this.
