"Before you go to the mall, take a look around, there is a lot of great stuff in the village," said Michele Rizzo, co-owner of Carmela Drew and Simply Fresh.
Many of the merchants already have heard from customers who have decided to stay local for holiday shopping.
"A lot of people have said it’s time to make a conscious effort without us soliciting it," said Darilynn Evans, owner of Darilynn’s Home Presence.
Despite that good news, village merchants have noticed a general decrease in traffic, especially through October and November, compared to previous years and the village atmosphere has been relatively quiet. After Thanksgiving, they say there has been a noticeable increase in sales and traffic into shops.
