Must read

“The early bird gets the worm” is a well-known English proverb that historians trace all the way back to the 1600s. Though the words might first have been popularized hundreds of years ago, they remain as true today as they were then, particularly regarding holiday shopping.

Savvy shoppers have long touted the importance of starting early when looking for holiday gifts for loved ones. Seasoned procrastinators may never embrace early shopping, but others who want to a less hectic holiday shopping season can get an early start at several local craft fairs this weekend. Craft fairs have the bonus of featuring unique and often handcrafted items. Plus, many offer food, entertainment and if it’s a fundraiser, your money will support a good cause.
