Ok let’s all admit that Christmas snuck up on us in a fierce way this year! Wasn’t it just December 1st? Now, I bet there are a bunch of you who still have a few names to cross off your list.  Am I right?

Last week I felt the urge to get to the big mall and finish my shopping and guess what? I got nothing accomplished.  It was just another reminder that we really do have everything we need right here in the beautiful Comox Valley!

I thought I’d put together a list of some of my favourite local shops where you’re sure to get that Christmas List all checked off. Happy Shopping Comox Valley!

States of Summer

This shop has become a local favourite for women’s (even some men’s) clothing, boho style household decor, shoes, jewelry and more! My favourite jeans right now we’re purchased here! The prices are great and there is always something for every price point.  This little gem is gaining popularity for great reasons!

The Mill Coffee

A shameless plug but let’s be honest, every great shopping experience starts with a good coffee! Pop into the Mill in Comox to fuel up before you hit the shops and while you’re there, grab a gift card or a bag of coffee for the coffee lover in your life!
