Consumer purchasing habits have shifted dramatically in recent years, with many opting to shop online rather than in our own communities. Whether you’re shopping for everyday essentials, special occasions, services or gifts, consider whether a local option exists. Many businesses here now offer the same conveniences—online ordering, same-day pickup, curbside delivery—and something the internet can’t match: the ability to see and feel the quality of what you’re buying.
