Gift Cards
A gift card to a local business is another great idea. It may not feel “special” but you’re still supporting local, while the person you’re gifting for can go pick out anything they want. Check out the Queen City Card, which features dozens of participating restaurants, drinkeries, shops, markets, hotels, experiences, museums, and more. Plus Kroger often does Fuel Points promotions when you buy gift cards—2X all the time and up to 4X when you have the digital coupon—and their selection of local options expands every year and includes restaurants, breweries, entertainment, and more.
