There is nothing quite as satisfying as shopping with local moms and dads and others in our community! I love meeting them, hearing their "Why" and putting a face with a place. I love knowing my purchase makes a difference to our economy right here in our corner of the world, Roanoke, Virginia.
Other ways you can help our local businesses: Share your purchase on facebook, check into the store when you're shopping (if it doesn't ruin any surprises) and tell your friends what you love about the store! Leave a review on facebook or google. You wouldn't believe how much this helps the business thrive!
