Shopping local keeps much needed tax dollars in our area and that’s good for everyone. But, shopping local isn’t just about frequenting big box chains within your zip code, it’s making a point of seeking out small stores owned by people who live in your community.
Every community has the same big box entities, however, no other community has the same specialty stores that you’ll find here in the Santa Clarita Valley. It’s the small businesses and specialty stores that give a community its charm and uniqueness. Without them, you could be in Anywhere, USA.
In these tough economic times, it’s more important than ever where you spend your hard earned cash.
Isn’t it better to shop the local mom and pop shops and specialty stores that are owned by members of this community? Wouldn’t you rather spend your money where you are really appreciated?
Do yourself and your community a favor this holiday shopping season and seek out small businesses and specialty shops for your holiday gift-giving and entertaining needs. You’ll be pleasantly surprised how much more enjoyable the season will be. You might even make a few friends along the way!
One local business, now beginning their third year in Santa Clarita is McKenna & Greene home and garden gift boutique. At McKenna & Greene, you’ll discover unique gifts at affordable prices. When you walk through the door of McKenna & Greene, you’ll be warmly welcomed. You can choose to be helped from one of the two owners (both long time residents of Santa Clarita) or left to explore on your own. It’s your choice. You’ll love the serene and friendly surroundings, which make for stress free holiday shopping. Plus, complimentary gift-wrap is available for any item purchased, regardless of price. The motto at McKenna & Greene is “Enter as Strangers, Leave as Friends.” Now what big box chain can say that!
