  1. If you’re looking for vintage Christmas ornaments and décor, Rosie’s Vintage holiday pop-up sale is the place to be. In addition to ornaments sold individually or in packages, this Huntington vintage emporium’s Christmas shop features little ceramic Santas, elves and reindeer, festive mugs, an endless assortment of holiday-themed salt and pepper shakers, angel candlestick holders and so much more! Ninety-five percent of the vintage Christmas that they have in the store is from houses on Long Island. There are cute and colorful Putz houses from Japan, handmade in the 1940s through 1960s out of cardboard, mica glitter "snow" and acetate, some of which are wired to light up. (Newsday)

  4. As more shoppers buy online this holiday season, customers are being warned about porch piracy, when a person takes a package that was not shipped to them before its recipient can pick it up from their porch or building.
