Exploring our Shopping Opportunities Never Ends

Keep It Local, by Barbara Lawrence – April 25, 2012
As you continue to look for that special gift for Mother's Day or upcoming wedding, think about something a bit unusual. My search this week began exploring the northern end of the Catawba River District. The retail complexes in the area of Mount Holly-Huntersville Road, Highway 16 and Rozzelle's Ferry Road are not based on a downtown model, but a combination of big box and shopping center. This allows for some small retail spaces and specialty stores.

Edible Arrangements is a franchise offering an array of edible fruits in fantastic arrangements for every occasion. They are ready for your special Mother's Day gift. This location is in the Bi-Lo Shopping Center, 2910-C Mount Holly--Huntersville Road, Charlotte, NC 28214. Great on-line selections are a sight to see on their website.



Continue to consider salons, spas, pedicures and manicures.  Great relaxing and beautifying gifts will be truly appreciated. 

Just around the corner from Edible Arrangements is Curves and V & T Nail.  Curves is behind the tree.





In the Mount Island Market Place - Harris Teeter Shopping Center at the corner of Highway 16, 3538 Mount Holly-Huntersville Road,  you can enjoy a manicure and pedicure at Exquisite Nails & Spa.  Afterwards, stop by the favorite Red Bowl Asian Bistro for sushi or other specialities. 





There is so much to explore and enjoy, I have to get started now on next week.  Mother's Day is almost here.
