Connect Locally t might seem like something out of a Norman Rockwell painting, but hitting downtown to do some shopping really can help put you in the Christmas spirit and provide a deeper connection with your local surroundings.

Most towns decorate the downtown streets, and many shops do holiday-themed window displays to attract shoppers. Yes, you should spend some money while you’re out (it helps the local economy, after all), but just hitting the streets to do some window shopping is a great way to bond with your family and friends during Christmas. HIT THE STREETS When you’re ramping up your Christmas shopping strategy, set aside a Saturday, or afternoon, to park (or walk, if you’re close enough) into your closest shopping district and start exploring. You might find a store you’ve never seen, or at least make an effort to visit a store you don’t frequent very often. It’s a great chance to look for unique gifts, while also getting to know your own town a little bit better. MAKE IT A FAMILY BONDING EXPERIENCE

Even if you don’t actually pick up any gifts while the kids (or spouse) are with you, hitting the local stores to scout out gift options is a great way to just spend some time with your family. Tell your kids stories about unique finds in the antique store, or let them make a list of gift options while perusing the aisles at a downtown general store. If you’re shopping for adults, it can also give you a chance to glance into local downtown boutiques. IT JUST FEELS LIKE CHRISTMAS

Walking the streets in down-

town, with a chill in the air in November or December, as the Christmas lights twinkle around the street lights and in the win-

dows, just feels quintessentially Christmas. It evokes the visuals and emotions from classic holiday

films like Miracle on 34th Street, and is just a great tradition to add to the Christmas season.

Local Gift Cards

f you’re totally stumped for a gift selection, there’s nothing wrong with snagging a gift card and tossing it in a greeting card. There’s no rule, however, that says you have to buy a card from a chain restaurant or big box store. Think local for an easy gift solution. CHECK LOCAL SHOPS

Most local stores have started offering gift card options for customers, be it a rechargeable card or just a gift certificate signed by the manager. Regardless, it can make for a more personal gift than just a generic gift card. If you find a store you think your loved one would really like but can’t find the perfect gift, just get a gift card and let them enjoy shopping and picking out their favorite items on your dime. A gift card to a local store can be a much more personal gift, and it also takes some of the guesswork out of gift-buying. Plus, it supports a local business. DON’T FORGET RESTAURANTS

Most local restaurants also offer gift cards, and a free lunch is a great gift. Aim high on this one; pick out a place you really

think they’ll like, and let them indulge with a nice meal as a gift from you. Be it a great, highly rated local restaurant or a beloved hole in the wall that has the best burgers in town, get creative and choose something that complements the taste of the recipient. COFFEE SHOPS, BAKERIES

If you want to offer a bit more of a snack, pick up a gift certificate to a local coffee shop or bakery, Just make sure the place is good (maybe test out a few pastries before you pick up the card). A $20 or $30 gift card can stretch a good distance at a coffee house or bakery. Try to think of a place that might be on your friend’s commute, as well, so they’ll have a chance to use it and take full advantage of your clever gift.

If you find a store you think your loved one would really like but can’t find the perfect gift, just get a gift card and let them enjoy shopping and picking out their favorite items on your dime. © FOTOLIA

Why shopping local matters

SPEND LOCAL AND MORE STAYS LOCAL

Numerous studies have analyzed the way money recirculates, and most agree that money spent locally has a much higher chance of staying in the community. A study commissioned by the British Columbia division of the Canadian Union of Public Employees found that for every $1 million in sales, independent retail stores generate $450,000 in local economic activity, compared to just $170,000 for chains. Among restaurants, the figures are $650,000 for independents and $300,000 for chains. Across both sectors, this translates into about 2.6 times as many local jobs created when spending is directed to independent businesses instead of chains. The study concludes that a shift of just 10 percent of the market from chains to independents would produce 31,000 jobs paying $940 million in annual wages to workers. MORE STABLE JOBS Economists at Yale University and the University of Bristol found that in times of high unemployment, small businesses both retain and create

During the recession of March 2008 to March 2009, the employment growth rate of large employers fell 1.65 percent more than the growth rate of small employers, compared with the previous year. In every other recession and recovery period in the study’s sample, large firms took years to recover relative to small firms.

owned firms. When the researchers plotted the scores on a 16-point commitment scale, the authors found

that, together, the two civic measures accounted for as much as a 1.7 point increase in organizational commitment, effects.

IT’S BETTER FOR THE COMMUNITY

A study by a professor at Baylor University found strong positive relationships between local ownership, firm size and employee loyalty, which they refer to as organizational commitment. Using data from a nationally representative public opinion survey, the study found that 57.2 percent of small firm workers scored in the highest commitment category, compared to 40.5 percent of large firm workers. They found a similar relationship for ownership, with 56 percent of workers at locally owned firms having high commitment scores, compared with just 38.7 percent of workers at non-locally

Candies great for gifting

inter, with its cooler temperatures, is a good time for making candy. Homemade candy adds a warm and personal touch to your holiday gifts.

Don’t be intimidated by the science behind turning sugar into candy; with the right tools, candymaking is a snap. SCIENCE When you’re making candy, what you’re really doing is cooking the moisture out of a sugary mixture. As the moisture cooks out, the sugar concentration soars and the candy gets harder. The more moisture, the softer the candy. Less moisture means harder, more brittle candy. Candymaking also usually happens quickly. Make sure to measure your ingredients before you cook and have all your tools at hand. TOOLS You probably already have most of the tools you need for making candy. A good, heavy pot; cookie sheets; and whisks and cooking spoons that are comfortable to hold (most recipes involve a fair amount of stirring). One tool you might not have that you should consider is a candy thermometer. This is a special thermometer that conveniently clips onto the side of a pot and also usually includes the stages of candy making (soft ball, hard crack, etc.) as well as the temperatures. Find candy thermometers in the kitchen tools section of most grocery stores. FUDGE One of the most popular holiday candies is rich, creamy fudge. It’s also one of the most versatile and, with the right recipe, one of the most forgiving candies out there. Most fudge recipes are chocolate, and you can mix in nuts, spices and fruit to any basic recipe to

really amp up the flavor. Most fudge recipes also are gluten-free. Peanut butter fudges also are a great choice and offer some of the easiest recipes to make. BRITTLE Similar to fudge, brittle recipes also are extraordinarily versatile and can be very easy to make. When choosing ingredients for your brittle, make sure to keep color and texture in mind. Combinations such as white chocolate, dried cranberries and pistachios offer a vivid holiday treat suitable for gifting. For nut brittles, you’ll be cooking a sugar mixture to the hard crack stage, so a thermometer is key.

Simple Peanut Butter Fudge 1/2 cup butter 2 cups brown sugar 1/2 cup milk 3/4 cup peanut butter 1 teaspoon vanilla 3 cups confectioner’s sugar Melt butter in a pot on medium heat. Stir in milk and brown sugar; stir until boiling and boil for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove from heat, add peanut butter and vanilla and stir. Pour over confectioner’s sugar in a large mixing bowl, and stir until thoroughly mixed. Pour into an 8x8 pan and chill until hardened.

usic can soothe the soul and put us in our happy places. It is universal in its appeal and inspires many great gift ideas. Musical tastes vary by person.

FOR THE LISTENER A newly released CD of their favorite singer is absolutely a great gift for music lovers. Bands also put out limited-edition albums that your friend or family member may not know about. Search your local music shop for these gems, which can make for thoughtful gifts this holiday season. Giving the gift of a musical experience is always a great idea. Surprise them with tickets to a much-anticipated upcoming live music performance. Digital music players are coveted gifts, especially for the young music lover in your life. Load up a prepaid card for music downloads or give a gift card to your local music retailer. FOR THE ROCKER Some music lovers are actually gifted musically themselves. The young ones might love a gift of

piano or guitar lessons or even singing lessons. A spectacular gift would be a new musical instrument. Your downtown music establishment is full of gifts for the rocker in all of us. Drumsticks, guitar picks or a new microphone would make for great stockingstuffers, while a new acoustic guitar or electric keyboard would look great wrapped and under the tree. FOR THE MUSIC HISTORY BUFF

With the expanse of great artists and bands that have graced the musical charts over the years, there are many museums and institutions devoted to celebrating our country’s musical milestones. A trip to a museum or hall of fame may be in order. Do some research and coordinate all of the details. You can even visit your local music store to buy CDs or digital downloads for music related to the museum you are visiting to make it a themed road trip. For example, if you’re visiting Dollywood or the Grand Old Opry, stop by your local music shop for some country-themed CDs to make your road trip all the more memorable.

The Reader any people on your list, young and old, have a real passion for reading. They are always ready to tell you what book they’re devouring at the moment and can rattle off a list of their favorite author from every genre.

These enthusiasts can be tough to buy for because you may not be sure exactly which books they have read over the years. A little creativity in your gift-giving can go a long way toward finding the perfect present. There are many reading subsets, from fiction and non-fiction to biographies and true crime. kKnowing what your friend or family member prefers is a great first step to finding the perfect gift. BOOKS OR TECHNOLOGY

Reading has a new venue in the form of modern technology. This adds to your choices because there are now multiple formats in which readers can enjoy books. E-readers are perfect for techsavvy readers. These devices are always coming out in newer, better equipped models, so help your friend stay on top of technology with the latest offerings. Traditional books come in soft or hardbound copies. Hardbound are generally more expensive but are better for collecting and showcasing on shelves. Consider the type of reading your book-lover prefers before buying that new bestseller. © FOTOLIA

YOUNG READERS

Reading is vital to the development of children. Giving opportunities to read as well as a variety of reading material at a young age will encourage reading. Family members and caregivers can play significant roles in developing reading readiness, and

the easiest time to learn is during the early elementary years. That is a great reason to choose books as gifts. OTHER OPTIONS Newspaper or magazine subscriptions are another option. Gift-givers could choose local or

national newspapers. Magazines that specialize in topics such as fashion or hunting, or those tailored to children are good options. A lot of people have favorite authors, so purchasing an book autographed by the author would be an unforgettable gift. Another

possibility would be an autographed collector’s item. Audio books are great for traveling long distances or for those who are more geared toward that type of learning. Of course, you can never go wrong with a gift certificate to your local bookstore.

Couples

ome gift-givers prefer buying for couples. Doing so allows for a bit of a higher budget per gift. It also can be easier to find a collective gift rather than finding presents for individuals.

Whether it is a young married couple or your adult children and their spouses, a couples gift is a great idea that shows how much you care. SHARED INTERESTS

Take note of any shared interests of the couple, because that way, the gift can be geared toward that common ground. This will increase the odds that both of them will be happy with the gift, and that is the overall goal, right? They both might enjoy the same type of music or movies, so the latest CD or movie release would fit the bill. Some couples have a mutual passion for traveling. A gift idea for them might be a new set of luggage or plane tickets to an adventuresome destination. If they both like the outdoors, give them equipment to go camping or hiking. Many couples like to do puzzles or crafts together. There are many budgetfriendly gift ideas that would be right up their alley.

tional gifts allow you to knock out two birds with one stone. Some newly married or young couples may need things such as a set of dishes, pots or towels. Bigger items such as a flatscreen TV or a piece of furniture would make for exceptional gifts. If they don’t really need anything or they are more established, a colorful scented candle or a personalized picture frame can be a fun gift. How about a gift card to your local home improvement store? Every couple has a few home projects in mind. OTHER OPTIONS

Some couples might be humored by a matching set of sweatshirts or hoodies. Novelty gifts fly off the shelves this time of year and can make memorable presents that you will talk about for years to come. For food and drink options, consider buying a good bottle of wine with a set of beautiful wine glasses. Local wineries are the place to shop for these.

The Boss Y

our boss plays an important role in the growth of you and your family, and hopefully, he is a friend, as well. A thoughtful gift will relay your gratitude this year. Depending on your relationship, it may be appropriate to give your gift during work hours or at a Christmas party. If your boss is actually a friend or family member, you can give your presents in more informal settings.

WHAT DOES YOUR BOSS LIKE? The overall work environment will contain clues to great gift ideas. Observe her office space or take note of any conversations that might reveal potential interests. If it is obvious by the way your boss dresses that she loves fashion, a trendy scarf might be in order. Ask other coworkers for advice or go in together for a bigger gift, such as a gift certificate that lets her pick out exactly what she wants. If her family visits often, ask family members for some ideas since they know your boss best. GIFT IDEAS In an office environment, anything that is personalized with a name and company logo is an option, including mugs, pens and office sup-

plies, or even a good-quality calendar or organizer. If he is a sports enthusiast, maybe buy him tickets to a coveted game, or he might enjoy some golf lessons. Lovers of the arts might enjoy theater, comedy or movie tickets. Never underestimate the powerful gift potential of homemade baked goods. If you love cooking, why not put that personal touch into your gift?

GIFT CARDS Giving gift cards has never been more popular. Here are some ideas for local establishments that would make for the perfect present for your boss: • Music shop for instruments or cultural civic center for popular plays; • Wine trail or fancy dining establishments; • Downtown arts and crafts store specializing in home decor; • Hardware store with plenty of options for the handy homeowner; and • Book shop for avid readers and researchers.

Donating to the Needy T he holidays are the perfect time to buy for those in need. There is nothing more uplifting than to meet someone’s need through a special gift that makes them smile.

Getting involved with local charities or soup kitchens during the holiday season is a great idea — one that hopefully sticks with you throughout the year. Because even though the holidays bring out the givers in all of us, people who are in need actually need help year-round.

HIGH-PRIORITY GIFTS There are many ways to buy gifts for those in need, but you may be wondering where to even start. The first thing to do in this situation is to check with your local giving organizations to find out if there are specific needs this holiday season. Their professionals will be able to point you toward high-priority items, such as personal care products (hair and skin products, toothpaste, razors) or gifts for kids (school clothes, shoes or coats). Many organizations are dedicated to these types of causes, so start there for ideas on how you can help this holiday season. PRACTICAL GIFTS Preparing and delivering a holiday food basket can be a great way to help those in a homeless shelter this year. Again, coordinate with management to find out their requirements and the best way to deliver these types of items. They may have policies in

place that limit what types of items you can gift to their residents. Pick up a card off a holiday Angel Tree and teach your children about giving to the less fortunate. Although these gifts are anonymous and their impact to the receiver unknown, it’s a special way to change someone’s Christmas.

GIFTS OF ENCOURAGEMENT “In need” doesn’t necessarily have to mean poor or homelessness. There may be people in your life struggling with grief during the holidays. A gift of encouragement may be what they need more than anything. Purchase an inspiring book

or offer to simply take them out to dinner. A special tree ornament, jewelry or perfume also make for great pick-me-up gifts. Don’t underestimate the power of your words of encouragement. Gifting a card with some personal words of wisdom or prayers would be priceless for those seeking support from others.

Parents

arents are some of the most important people in our lives. Giving them gifts during the holidays or any time is just a good way to say that we appreciate them.

Some people give individual gifts to their parents, while others prefer a couple’s gift. Either way is fine, but a combined present might be more challenging if they tend to have opposite tastes. For Dad: A father might enjoy a new watch or wallet. Many of them like to tinker with tools or love to cook outside. A new barbecue grill and accessories might be right on target. If they are active, new golf equipment or fishing lures could thrill them. Even if they are generally inactive, these gifts might encourage some healthy activity. For Mom: Mom might like beautiful jewelry or skin care products. Pretty flowers or trinkets to beautify her home are always a safe bet. A new outfit or piece of 1698 South State Street Orem 801-235-9193 Mon-Sat 10am-7pm MRE’s - Single/Case Packs/Pouches Insignia Knives/Machetes Gas Masks/Filters Martial Art Items Dutch Oven/Supplies Stoves/Mess Kits Enamelware Helmets/Hats Hydration/Purification Canteens/Cups Desert Scarves Biker Leather Goggles/Glasses Compasses First Aid Supplies Nets - All Types Books/Manuals Prospecting Gear

clothing is great for moms of all ages. During the cold season, a new warm blanket or throw is a considerate and practical gift. For Both: Sometimes a larger gift is appropriate for the parents in your life. If you want to update their technology, a cell phone, flat-screen television or computer is the way to go. If you really want to surprise them, pay for plane tickets to an amazing destination, or if possible, pay for the whole vacation.

GIFTS OF MEMORIES & TIME Memories become increasingly important as we age. Some nostalgic gifts inspire happy feelings from our parents’ glory days and can make for great ideas this

holiday season. A traditional but favorite gift for parents is new and updated pictures of the family or grandkids. Those pictures serve as reminders of the family legacy they are building on a daily basis. Don’t forget the most priceless gift someone can give their parents and that is the gift of time. That might entail taking them out to dinner or spending the day with them just drinking coffee. Helping with a needed home improvement project or paying for someone to do it is invaluable for parents young and old alike, so be creative with your gifts and spoil your parents a bit this year.

Holiday gift-giving ideas

wasatch park $200

(StatePoint) Everyone has had to scurry around to find a last minute holiday gift at some point, whether you procrastinated, you were searching for the perfect gift or you forgot to add someone to your gift list, but don’t let these scenarios cause you stress. The discount experts at Dollar General are offering advice to help you find something for everyone this holiday season. THOSE WHO HAVE EVERYTHING… For the family and friends who have everything, consider purchasing small decorative items for them to use around their homes. Blankets, candles, picture frames and even holiday decorations are great last-minute items recipients will enjoy. Food baskets with delicious snacks and holiday candy placed in a decorative canning jar are simple,

affordable and useful items that are sure to make loved ones smile this season. GREAT GO-TO GIFT ITEMS For recipients who are hard to shop for, gift cards and technology items are great go-to gifts. Consider headphones, DVD players and TracFones. Gift cards to favorite restaurants, retail stores and coffee shops are always a great choice, giving them freedom to choose exactly what they want. GIFTS FOR MOM AND DAD Don’t forget about mom and dad this holiday season. For Dad, save on Emerson men’s gifts like outdoor lanterns, portable tools for camping and winter clothing. You can also find sleepwear, scarves and handbags that are sure to make Mom happy this holiday.

Give Something Unique

f you’re looking for something quintessential about your hometown or area, hitting a local shop is probably your best bet. Shopping local for the holiday opens up a whole new arena for gift-buying, outside the usual hustle and bustle of cookie-cutter catalog options.

CHECK OUT THE ART If you look close enough, many towns have local art shops — or at least an artist or craft guild — that organizes things locally. Track down the nearest one and see what the creative minds in your community have to offer. From mixed media art to paintings, buying from local artists helps support their work, while also offering a gift that is one of a kind and truly unique to the area. Some can even do work on commission, if you’re looking for something extra personal.

THE SAME THING GOES FOR JEWELRY With the rise of platforms such as Etsy and Pinterest, there are more small-town artists than ever just trying to make a living and offer up

something unique. If you’re shopping for jewelry, check around for local jewelry makers, and you could find the perfect, quirky gift for your loved ones. If you’re looking for something with a local tie, too, this also could be your best bet.

DON’T FORGET THE TOYS Locally made toys are a bit harder to pull off, but many local shops stock toys — and the offerings can be very different from what you’ll find in the toy aisle at a big box retailer. From toy train sets to vintage toys that have been around since the 1950s (but may not be in easy circulation these days), local shops often carry a much more diverse set of toy options. Take a risk and go for something old school this year.

Don’t Forget the Treats

ith the focus so much on gift-giving, it’s easy to forget that you also can get a little creative with the types of gifts you buy, especially with food. Most towns have local restaurants and bakeries, and all it takes is a bit of effort to work up a Christmas gift that can warm a heart — and a stomach.

THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX Local bakeries are the obvious mainstays for most towns, and those are great. But, if you’re looking to get a bit more creative, check around for something a bit quirkier. From gourmet popcorn shops to vintage candy stores, many small towns hold some interesting surprises, if you look close enough. These gifts can be both delicious and one-ofa-kind, since it’s something only available locally. If you want to take it a step further, include a gift box with a local recipe. CHECK OUT THE HOLIDAY DEALS Along with being delicious, a box of cookies or gourmet treats also can take the edge off of wrapping and delivery. Many bakeries and candy shops offer holiday-themed packages, complete with bows and cards that can be personalized with different treats and messages. Some even offer delivery. If you’re giving to a sports fan, some even offer team-themed packages. Just be sure to ask what types of gift packaging they offer. It might cost a couple of extra bucks but could save a whole lot of hassle. DON’T FORGET THE RESTAURANTS

If you want to go with something a bit easier, you can always pick up an item (or gift card) from a local restaurant. The local barbe-

cue joint might have its own special sauce, or a local bakery might sell its own cookie dough for baking at your leisure.

If you have a loved one who likes to cook (or grill), this could make for a unique option to keep on the gift list.
