After your scrumptious Thanksgiving dinner, Black Friday will give you a chance to get a jump on your holiday shopping. Of course, you can go to nearby malls like Pioneer Place and find all sorts of sales on that date, but we want to let you know about the Christmas Bazaar that starts on Black Friday at the Portland Expo Center.

Shopping at the Christmas Bazaar will give you access to all sorts of unique, hand-crafted, presents for your loved ones. It consists of two large halls full of exhibitors and their crafts. We recommend you wear nice comfortable shoes and plan to be there for a while. Food is also available. You could bring the family and take the best pictures with Santa at his Village. Find all the information here.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, a productive Black Friday, and may you get in the spirit of the season!
