LPPT Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 I know many of you will be headed to the big box stores for the huge discounts on electronics and toys. Please try to shop Paulding if at all possible. After you have rushed in before sun up please keep in mind that many small shops are also having great sales. They don't require that you get up at 4am and stand in line, they will be open all day so you can browse at your leisure without all the shoving and pushing. If you have someone that is hard to shop for keep in mind many of our local service providers will do a gift certificate. Hair, nails, makeovers. Car detailing, yard clean up, house cleaning, oil changes,computer clean up. restaurant gift certificates. Many of our geeks are selling refurbished computers and laptops perfect for students and younger children. Please check our directory on here to see where and what some of our small shops and businesses have to offer. These people work hard and contribute to our community, by employing your friends and neighbors and paying taxes. You may be keeping a local family afloat by shopping small and local Link to post Share on other sites

BH87 Posted November 27, 2010 Report Share Posted November 27, 2010 As a former small business owner(happily retired and resting!)
