This time of year everyone's thoughts turn to gift giving. What can you give a loved one, a colleague, a good friend that's unique, a bit different -- something they will appreciate and remember? Look no further! I'm providing some creative ideas below that are unique as well as local. So before you run out to the big chain store to purchase a gift that they may already have or will be just like someone else's, read below and feel free to comment and add your own local gift giving ideas!
