Baskets for those you don't know _that_ well or selections for those you do. All local, delivers to #yqr as well!

Explore coffee roasting with their little single serves. Great for camping as well!

Hard to get more community than Turning the Tide. Books, but also still DVDs and BluRays for those of us stuck in the early 21st century. ;-)

What is more pandemic-proof than being outside? Be ready for long evenings safe with friends by dressing for the cold.
https://primalpasta.ca/ 

@PrimalPasta offers take-out. Why not provide a gift card and a promise for a special evening with some of #yxe's finest Italian dining.

Lots to pick from @thebettergood. Sustainable and local, there's a full online store for delivery or pick-up.

Things for that person with everything. Really. (Local delivery)

Brainsport is a local icon for active people. Swimming, running, hiking... great safety for in-store shopping, but also delivery!

Find a new piece of art, frame your hobby, or start a hobby for those long winter months to come.

It's never too early to think about summer. :-) Or find gifts for inside. Call for an appointment.

Online ordering or safe dining. Gift cards are great stocking stuffers.

This is one I didn't know about, but looks tres cool. If someone wants to get me a retro faux-fur jacket...

I'll be honest: the best Christmas gifts I receive are socks and Broadway Shoe Repair has awesome socks. And shoes. And Boots. And...

Cross-country skiing and snowshoeing are so popular right now that I heard a rumour you can sell 40-year-old skis for over $100.

Or you can buy new ones at Eb's! Lots of great stuff in the online store.
https://caloriesrestaurant.ca/  @CaloriesYXE

Used to be a date night staple for us, but we didn't think to use the online ordering now available. We'll fix that this holiday season!
https://odla.ca/ 

Not only great food, but a really fantastic market, including food to freeze and ... mulled wine!

Also, apparently, charcuterie, which appears to be a #yxe thing this year.
https://meewasin.com/  @Meewasin

If stuff isn't what you want, give the gift of a donation to Meewasin and their ongoing work to preserve our amazing river valley.

We can argue all day about whether or not our local media is "local", but local reporting is very important. Give the gift of a Star Phoenix subscription!
