this season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCommerce Ballarat encourages everyone to look over their shopping lists in the lead up to Christmas and spend local,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBallarat has such an array of amazing, unique stores and we all need to support them through their recovery.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>From handcrafted goods and home-grown specialty products to eclectic ranges and boutique
