Shop Local.... Online!

We are truly experiencing life changing times right now. As a wife of someone who is a business owner, I know the importance of remembering those (especially now) who will now and forever be impacted by what is going on today.

I love our local shops, boutiques, restaurants etc. here in the Phoenix area, and know many of them have had to either completely close down, or stop in person shopping and go to a strictly online / pick up model.

I hope this post inspires you, your friends and your family to go (online) and support your local businesses until they can re open again and get back on their feet!

This list will NOT do all the local businesses justice, but to get you started I have compiled a few ideas below.
