Choices Christian Bookstore reminds shoppers to buy local, reason for the season

Choices Christian Bookstore is an advocate for shopping local and the reason for the season. The store held its Small Business Saturday sale, in which customers were given a different sale every hour during the shopping event.

“The sale was a success, many customers took advantage of the sales,” store manager Connie Jagau said “The biggest sale was the ‘Duck Dynasty’ hour.”

Choices is now completely decorated for the Christmas season with Christmas items all on the shelves now. The store also has online and catalog options with sales going on both. The deadline for ordering items from either online or the catalog is Dec. 17.

“The December catalog is in stores now, we want the community to shop local, so if it’s not in store we will find it,” Jagau said “We make weekly orders to try to accommodate all customers. We send our orders in every Tuesday at around 3 p.m.”

Choices has items with both traditional and modern Christmas themes as well items for everyone on your shopping list.

“A big seller for us, during the Christmas season, is study bibles, children’s books, Advent candles, Nativity sets, Holiday season DVDs and CDs as well,” Jagau said.

“We have something for everyone on your shopping list. We have some holiday CD gift sets with Amy Grant, Toby Mac, Jeremy Camp.”

Choices also does pre-orders for all of your Christian and inspirational genre of books, DVD, and CD. Look in the catalog or at the store for more information.

“We are now taking pre-orders for Casting Crowns new CD coming out next year called ‘Thrive,’” Jagau said.
