The holiday season is upon us. Here at Capo's we have been gearing up for the holiday season for some time. We stocked the store with great deals for everyone on your holiday list. From instruments to accessories, books to crafts. We have lots to choose from.
At Capo's we try to make shopping a pleasure, not a pain. We know you have choices on where to spend your money and we are thankful for each purchase customers make. We strive to offer a wide selection at fair prices. We are offering discounts during the holidays but we also try to be fair all year long. But ultimately, we want to create a relationship with you that will last all year long, not just during the holidays. That is becuase to us here at Capo's you are more than a dollar sign. You are our friends and neighbors. Like most small businesses we rely on local support to stay open. We encourage all our customers to not just shop local with us, but shop local as much as possible across the board. Here are a few ideas for how you can skip the chaos of the big box stores.
Here's a list of some fantastic ideas for quick and meaningful gifts that you can even wait until the last minute to get (and you probably won't even have to wrap it!): A Gift Certificate for services to: a local hairdresser, a local Garage for oil changes, get their car washed and detailed, get their driveway sealed, get their lawn mowed or snow removed, get their home cleaned by a local cleaning person, get their computer serviced. Or maybe a Gift Certificate to have fun by:trying out a local restaurant, or maybe an old favorite (Be sure to leave your server a big tip!)play a round of golf at the local golf coursegoing to a local tourist attraction that they've never been tostaying at a local bed and breakfastgoing to see a playLooking for something a little more tangible than a gift certificate? Don't forget your local crafters! Potters, woodworkers, soap makers, jewelry makers, blacksmiths, and bookbinders just to name a few! These can be found at places like Holston Mountain Artisans, the Looking Glass shop at the William King, most of the idependent shops in town and at the Abingdon Farmers Market.
You can even find locally made one of a kind toys for the little ones on your gift list this year.Don't forget about our local farmers and foodies! How about a nice bottle of local wine or beer from a local brewery? You could even gift someone them a gift certificate to the farmer's market. This Holiday season, lets give our communities a big gift by shopping local, spending local, and celebrating local. Every dollar you spend at a local store, or for local services stays right there in the community. The more money in your community, the more your community will thrive and opportunity will grow.
Remember the reason for the season. Take time out for those you love and hold dear. Support your local communities when you can. And, above all, May God Bless Us Everyone!
