(Nov.27.09)
We love online shopping (thank you Gift Guide) and in-advance organization but sometimes all we need is a quick trip to a local shop to find a great gift. Here are five of our favourites:

Boutik on First
Art, make-up, and hard-to-find designer clothes make stuffing our friends’ stockings easy.

Joints
From gourmet treats to jewellery, purses and shoes, this spot is for the person affectionately referred to as ‘difficult’. (We all have at least one on our list.)
