Today is the day people across the UK celebrate Small and Independent businesses. We're all being encouraged get down our local shops, dig deep and show some support. I for one and very down with this as there's some amazing stores out there just waiting to be discovered, it's something I'm very passionate about.

It would be rude not to give a mention to our Small Business, Northern Goods Co., run by myself and Hollie. We're currently offering 30% off all orders with the code "HOHOHO30". So click on through and buy someone a present from a Small Business this Christmas! Join in with #SmallBizSatUK.


I hope you've all had a lovely week guys! Are you venturing down to your locals this weekend? I'd love to hear about some of your favourite small businesses, send me your links!
