catalogs! catalogs! catALOGS!

If you have been living under a rock and did not notice the creeping in of Christmas, you do not have to look any further than your mailbox. The number of catalogs we have gotten this year is incredible. Our poor mail lady will need a back brace to get through this holiday season.

I admit we have ordered things in the past from vendors who have sent us catalogs. It is the individual ones that I have never heard of that have me momentarily stumped. I have learned from my inquiries in the past that the mystery catalogs are usually related to another company hoping we will continue to purchase items from their stores.

In this crazy world, it is good to slow down and check out the magazines just to marvel at the products on the market in 2022. I hope all your retail dreams come true by spending local, supporting our excellent makers in our community, and bringing joy to your family and friends this holiday season.
