Pauline’s Gifts is definitely a fun place to shop and enjoy the ambience.  On Saturday it was an honor to set up my photography products.  Many customers coming to Pauline’s Gifts enjoying themselves.  Pauline’s smile welcomes everyone.  Thank you, Pauline, for inviting me and for a great time.

This holiday season was wonderful. Most of all I want to thank everyone who came to the local holiday shows and bought from local vendors. It is so important to buy local. Enjoyed seeing customers shop at our local retail stores and restaurants.

The season is upon us

Magtoctoberfest a success

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

What a great time on October 10, 2021 at Magtoberfest was so fun.  Thank you everyone who came and participated.  A special thank you to the committee and sponsors and everyone who came.  Here is a couple of photos, because it was so busy, which was great, not many photos.  Had a great time. The antique cars, food, beer garden, vendors and music just made the day.  Thank you again for shopping

Doyon’s Appliance

Posted on by Donna Ardizzoni

My washer and dryer arrived right on time on Saturday as we were promised when we bought them at Doyon’s, 15 Whistlestop Way, Gloucester, MA 01930.  It was very reassuring to have Doyon employees install our washer and dryer as well.  The employees practiced safe protocol, wearing masks and keeping their distance.

Keeping it local makes a difference in customer service and helps our local economy strong.

Shoppin Local- From Donna and Barbara

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

As residents of the great city of Gloucester, we must impress again how much shopping, eating, banking and enjoying our local business establishments means.
If you shop at a chain store and you are short $1, the clerk cannot help you out.
Shopping at a local store, you can come back with the dollar.
If you cannot get a purchase in your car and the landscaping store is going your way with another delivery, they put will bring it to you. The banking establishments will call you if you have left your “Deposit Only Stamp” in the bank. Our wonderful eating establishments will make sure if you are allergic to something, it will not be served.
Again, going local is not just a saying; it is real and keeps our community strong. Thank you.
