If you’re like us, your idea of Hell is trying to navigate the local mall during the holiday season. Luckily, the folks at HollyDaze Market have taken the guesswork out of gift giving. This weekend, at the Palmer Events Center, you can shop over 100 different vendors without having to brave those annoying perfume-sprayers who station themselves in the doorways of department stores.

In addition to all the goodies for sale, there will be live music, a silent auction, a “date” auction, door prizes, photos with Santa, a fashion show by Estilo, free DVD video postcards, and our personal favorite…a cash bar. The three-day event will also offer on-site gift-wrapping and shipping so you can shop for the whole family and still have time to drink some eggnog. Entrance to the market costs $7, but the fee is waived for all those who bring a new, unwrapped gift for Operation Blue Santa.
