Think Local. Save Local. For Guys, too.

CarQuest has a full selection for the automotive guy in your life.

Two emerging trends are inspiring the way we view gift giving this holiday season: one is to simplify and the other is to shop locally. Many are finding that the crazy frenzy of big box shopping and commercialization is ruining the holidays. Believing that more “stuff” doesn’t bring happiness, they want to simplify by giving gifts with meaning and value. But how does one follow this trend? We can look to our  businesses located close by and our own creativity! Think Local. Spend Local. When it comes to giving gifts for guys, Osceola has lots of choices. There are many ways to give thoughtful gifts of value by spending locally. You can be sure they will be appreciated!
Let’s start with some great service ideas for guys.
Many people don’t want more “stuff” but would love a gift of service. How about a gift certificate for a massage or car detailing? Studio A Salon has top notch massage services that any guy could enjoy. OMC also offers massages. Here are a few local service gift ideas for guys:

Just remember that every time you spend one dollar @ a local independently owned business 68 cents stays within our community- helping to support the hard working families that run these shops. And the shopping experience is way less stressful – and more fun-knowing that you are supporting families-your neighbors and friends.
