Why local?

A Smarter Way to Shop

Diversity in products and services

No delivery delays.
Local stores help to sustain vibrant, compact, walkable town centers-which in turn are essential to reducing sprawl, automobile use, habitat loss and air and water pollution.

Support your community

Physically touching and seeing items in person allows for shoppers to get a feel for the item in store before a purchase is made.

This also will help cut down on post holiday returns.
Let’s not forget having the opportunity to ensure a fit is correct, whether it's a pair of pants, a shirt or a warm winter jacket.

Develop relationships

Despite all of our advancements in technology, specifically online shopping, there’s nothing that will ever quite compare to the in-person customer service experience.

We’re innately social creatures and sometimes we can really use the help of a personal shopper to point us in the right direction.
Shopping in-store allows customers to talk to the employees and other shoppers and get advice about the best products for their lives.
