Buy local, buy hand-made, for the Holidays!

Here's revised text of a great little picture posted on FaceBook, promoting the idea of how to help our local business people this holiday season.

*******************

HERE'S AN IDEA: Let's buy Christmas (and other Holiday) presents from small local businesses, and self-employed people.
For example, from your neighbor who sells online, the local crafts person who makes jewelry, the girl who is a stunning florist.
The local gift store, your friend who runs a shop, the local bakers who do handmade cakes, buns and chocolates.
The guy who has a stall at the market, the guy that runs a cafe or salon.

Let's make sure that money goes to individual people and not multinational companies.

This way more LOCAL people will have better Holidays.

If you think it's a good suggestion, copy and paste this.

Support REAL people!
