There’s been a lot of discussion on the local blogs about the common misconception that local boutiques only carry expensive items. Since this topic surfaced, a number of Decatur shop owners have done a great job changing customers’ perceptions. For example, Alexia Gallery’s sign:
Over 700 items under $50?! Not bad for beautiful, hand-crafted jewelry.
Also, we’re happy to report that it sounds like we don’t have to convince anyone about the benefits of keeping it local. This season many of Decatur’s shop owners have told us that customers have been more determined than ever to do all their holiday shopping locally. Thanks for the local support, everyone!
Nothing at Whit’s End is over $99! Most shirts, sweaters, fleece and jackets are in the $30-$70 range. The most expensive pair of jeans we have is $48. Many items are discounted.
