As we approach Christmas Day, I know that many people (like me) are finishing up their Christmas shopping. While I am certainly aware that other communities in our area have much to offer, here are a few tidbits about some of our local businesses that might give you some ideas for those last-minute gifts:
DID YOU KNOW
- The Minden Opera House Gift Shop has new collectible hand painted Christmas City ornaments?
- Relay for Life has cookbooks for $10 that would make great Christmas presents? They can be purchased by calling Toni @ 832-7520.
- Red River says that, “Many people do not know that we have wonderful homemade pizzas and huge homemade calzones every Wednesday night. Our regular pizza-eaters say they are the best.” They also offer gift certificates.
I’ll admit that sometimes it’s just fun to step out of the everyday routine and shop out of town. To expect that everyone will do all of their shopping in any one town is just unreal in this day and age. However, during this holiday season, please remember that your local businesses offer many great goods and services. The money you spend in town supports our local companies and retailers and keeps our town thriving!
Have a very Merry Christmas.
