MODERATORS
 

I'm trying to move away from buying so many things online instead of supporting local. What are some local businesses you folks suggest? Where have you had a great customer experience in the HRM?

Restaurants suggestions and that sort of thing are welcome as well, but I'm mostly interested in finding local alternatives to online stores like Amazon and big chain stores like Walmart.

Chanoeys! Nimbus publishes some cool books too, they're a Halifax publishing company. Yu Yo for crafts/art supplies. Any of the farmers markets usually have local meat and produce.
