When you are trying to think of gifts this year , think local and purchase gift certificates for services everyone needs or enjoys .
Support local businesses by giving gifts for services

When you are trying to think of gifts this year , think local and purchase gift certificates for services everyone needs or enjoys .
There isn ’ t a busy mom in the community who wouldn ’ t appreciate gift cards for food that she doesn ’ t have to make or clean up after . Fast food and pizza are always good , but think outside the box and consider a gift card from one of the restaurants that prepare full meals . A coffee house also is a welcome gift card for busy people .
And thinking of food , what about a gift certificate from one of the local bakeries ? During the stress of the season , having desserts already taken care of would be great — or to sneak as a stress relief when no one is looking . A gift card to a local florist could help brighten the dreary days after the holidays .
Looking and feeling your best helps beat holiday stress . You could help someone by purchasing gift cards for hair salons , barbers or a place that does nails . A tanning bed package might be welcomed by someone who loves the summer glow that faded quickly .
For the pet lover in your family , how
File
about a gift card for a local dog groomer , boarding or day care ? Spoiling pets is always fun and would be appreciated .
A gift certificate for a local photographer would be a special gift for anyone in your family . Help a family preserve this special time in their lives .
To help reduce the list of to-do items , buy a gift certificate for a cleaning or organizing service . Both are available in Coshocton . A local landscaping service would be a great service for someone who just doesn ’ t have time to do everything outside they want to do . There are power-washing services in Coshocton , and that would be a big help to someone who can ’ t do it but wants a nice , clean house . Car detailing or maintenance also would be welcome gifts . Something as simple as having the oil changed in the car would be great . Or hire a contractor to fix small odd jobs around their house .
The best way to think about possible service gifts you could give is to think about what you enjoy or need to have done at your own home . It might give you a list of ideas about what someone else might need or want . Coshocton is full of local people ready to help you find the perfect service gift option . Think outside the box and surprise someone this Christmas .
