The St. Paul Pioneer Press ranked holiday shopping destinations in an article titled 5 great: shopping towns and guess who came out on top?
That’s right good old Northfield, with its authentic downtown. As the article in Sunday’s paper said, “Anyone can shop for holiday gifts online or at the mall”. But if you’re a little more daring or creative and you “enjoy the thrill of the hunt” and “you want to bask in holiday atmosphere” the paper suggests five places worth exploring, with Northfield leading the pack.
Who else in the list? Well, you might be surprised with the heady company we’re keeping as a top holiday shopping destination in the upper Midwest region.
