Why You Should Shop Small

Posted by Nicole Doud on

 

We talk a lot about shopping small and how every purchase that you make truly does make a difference for Little Luxuries of Mackinac and for so many vendors on Mackinac and in Michigan. We want you to know that your purchase truly does make a difference, it’s not just something that we say! We are so grateful that Little Luxuries  has so many of you from Michigan, the Midwest and all over the country supporting us.

We know that sometimes shipping is a factor in why people don’t shop online with us. We have highlighted posts about how many steps there are to get your packages from Mackinac Island to your doorstep - it’s a lengthly process! We are thankful for all of the postal workers who help make it happen, (especially the post office on Mackinac!), and Jenna who packages all your orders in the winter! We’ve done our best to accommodate FREE shipping for all orders over a certain amount. If you look ahead at the month and place on order with us, you’ll save on shipping! Put together your list of birthday gifts, any holidays and add a little something to treat yourself. When you do this, you will be shopping small and you will save on shipping! It’s truly a win-win!

When you shop with us, you are able to help support so many Michigan vendors. We have over 50 Michigan vendors, with a handful of them being located directly on Mackinac Island! Each Michigan vendor means a great deal to us - we have worked to develop deep relationships with our vendors and trust them to bring you the best products. Jenna Kator Handbags, A State of Copper, Red Cabin Studio, just to name a few that we know you also love! When you shop with us, you are also helping support those local Michigan vendors.

Shopping small gives you the opportunity to shop from a unique selection of carefully chosen to bring a touch of whimsy into your life! We are all about the little luxuries, the simple delights, the things that just bring a smile to your face. When you shop small for yourself or a friend, you are able to find a more individualized gift that really shows how much you care.

We are SO grateful for all of you who continue to support Little Luxuries. It is a unique opportunity to be a shop owner on Mackinac Island: one that I love and value so much! Building relationships with you, our customer, is one of the best parts! I love seeing familiar faces each season and then getting to meet new friends, too! Every time you shop small and see a familiar name, we get excited seeing that you are finding more you love! And each first time customer, we are SO grateful that you’ve found us - we hope to become your go-to online shop.

Little Luxuries will be opening on April 25th, 2025 for its 17th season, which is truly amazing. We could not have done it without you - thank you for choosing to shop small. We cannot wait to see what this 17th season holds for our little shop on Mackinac.
