Sadly, with the cost of postage and my family scattered from one coast to the other, I'll be doing shopping on-line for a lot of items. However, it will be supporting artists and crafters rather than big retail stores. Small steps. <br /><br />Enjoy your upcoming weekend!!!martiehttp://so-many-roads.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2582219175036372780.post-29646809884511405042012-11-04T02:29:32.462+11:002012-11-04T02:29:32.462+11:00I think it is a great idea to support local busine...I think it is a great idea to support local businesses and crafts people at the holidays. In addition, this avoids the mall experience. It has been years since I've gone in one as the whole thing is so overstimulating for me with the lights and crowds and loud music and variety of discord going on.

I know you'll have lots of good times with friends and family here. <br /><br />We've cut down so much on Christmas gift giving and have it pared down to just the grandchildren now and even there we do mostly online for the UK kiddies. I love to look around craft fairs though and pick up things for birthdays for next year.Kate Ihttp://kateiredale.typepad.com/inspirednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2582219175036372780.post-43892663657200779832012-11-03T23:55:58.800+11:002012-11-03T23:55:58.800+11:00that is actaully a really good suggestion.

Our local mall is gearing up for the big xmas rush already I feel, and it just makes me feel tired all those people and crowds!<br /><br />I think I will look into buying and supporting small business, what a great idea and give them a go instead of the already big retail names!Everydaythingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02562558164959015562noreply@blogger.com
