2017 Holiday Gift Guide - #OurScranton
If you're looking to avoid mall crowds this holiday season, downtown Scranton is the perfect place to get your shopping done while supporting small businesses. We did some of the dirty work for you and scoped out some gifts -- it's a good excuse for a study break if you ask us.
For starters, ScrantonMade's Holiday Market is back in the Globe Store this year from Dec. 1-3! More than 150 local vendors are participating, and there will be food and music to keep your energy up as you shop.
Feeling some hometown pride? Lavish Body + Home carries Electric City pillows,
You can always count on Freedlove to carry the latest trends from Blank NYC, Amuse Society, Somedays Lovin and more. Be warned though, their wall of stocking stuffers might have you getting something for yourself! Why not the 2018 planners from Rifle + Co so you can start off the new year on the right foot?
Burlap & Bourbon is chock full of preppy tees, fleeces and pullovers from Patagonia and Vineyard Vines, and the assorted kits from Men's Society are fun and practical at the same time.
Over the Moon specializes in baby and bridal registeries, so it's a great place to find a gift for those who have much to celebrate or if you know someone who loves his/her homegoods!
The Daisy Collective is the go-to place if you're looking for something with a bohemian touch.
