Why Your Favorite Local Shop Vanished

Ever wonder why that old hardware store down the street suddenly closed? Pacific Heights Hardware, a neighborhood staple for 118 years, is shutting its doors because people just stopped coming in. With big players like Amazon and Walmart making it so easy to shop from your couch, small shops are struggling to keep up. If you love your local spots, maybe skip the online cart once in a while and shop in person—it really does make a difference! #ShopLocal #SupportSmallBusiness #RetailTrends #MoneyLifehacks #Business
