Shop local in South Georgian Bay this holiday season

Are you looking for that perfect last minute holiday gift for someone special? There’s no shame in waiting til the last second to buy a gift. Sometimes holidays creep up on you and before you know it, it’s here and you haven’t hit the stores yet. Or perhaps you’re just not interested in being in a crowded (do stores get crowded anymore?) shop. Luckily, there are lots of options for gift cards to give to someone you love. Whether you’re looking for a service like a photography session, or you just aren’t sure which piece of jewellery to get from your favourite shop, gift cards are a great opportunity to show someone you care.

Here we’ve rounded up some of our very favourite local businesses who offer gift cards.
