If I get a gift card I’ll actually be able to buy my family some gifts, pick me!
My niece goes to Portland often for work. She loves to shop.
This would be a great gift.
I am a frequent supporter of Portland Saturday Market and would love to do my holiday shopping there!
I LOVE Saturday Market in the summertime, but rarely venture to it in the wet winter. A gift card would give me the kick in the butt I need! :)
Shop local & support our local crafters. Win/win!
I would love to get this card! I spend so much money at the Saturday Market as is, this would really help! I already know what I spend it on too! The wire jewelry would make a great gift for my mom :)
I love the market. You will find things there you wont find in stores. I also like the variety of food vendors and a excuse to leave the Reed neighborhood and head downtown.
Here are the top 5 reasons I’d like to win this:
5. I’m broke
4. My friends will get actual presents instead of handmade art projects.
3. It will get me out of my house instead of playing XBOX 24/7
2. I’ll get to see live music, people breakdancing, and probably that gray guy with the balls.
And the number 1 reason I’d like to win this…
PDX PIPELINE RULES!!!!
I would LOVE to win as this Christmas is tight for us (as it is with most people) in the last month and a half we’ve had two massive car repair bills, and this would help. A lot- especially since we have two kiddos who LOVE Saturday Market!
I want to attend the festival of the last minute because there are some great things and toys that my 3yr old twin boys would love to have for Christmas!
I <3 the Saturday Market! Great food, music, entertainment; all on TOP of spectacular things to browse and buy!
It would let me buy at least one person a Christmas present that I can’t afford
This would make for a great gift for a family in need that would otherwise go without!
I’ve been a procrastinator all my life… And the Saturday Market is always a blast :)
this would help me a lot this xmas season!!
I don’t like to shop but I love supporting local artists & businesses. This would be a great way to pick up some gifts for my loved ones!
I’m buying as much local as I can for the holidays. I’d love to have the opportunity to get a little help with it :)
Would love to win this and help support the great people at the market, I can’t really afford to go and shop the local artists and this would be great!
Love the Saturday market – especially every day!
This would be so great to win, especially because I spent most of my gift money on losing Powerball tickets.
Supporting local for the holidays!
Just sold our house from where we live before we relocated to Portland in July and hoping to get gifts from the Saturday market for all our family back east but on a super tight budget. U know how the housing market is..
I Love the hand made items that can be found at Saturday Market. Christmas is SO commercialized anymore and to me, handmade/homemade is much more personal to give. This will be the 1st Christmas without my Dad who passed in June, and I am looking for a keepsake in his honor. I am sure I can find something at the market with all the different things and the gift card would be awesome to help me purchase this special item.
Handcrafted items are the best, and supporting small local businesses supports the people I like and want to support!
I love Portland, I love saturdays, I love markets, I love festivals, I love the last minute! This is like some kind of harmonic/drum circle convergence; sign me up.
The Saturday Market is great and I have going since I was a kid. I think it’s very important to shop local.
I’d love to buy my family handcrafted gifts!
I love the Saturday Market, would love more of an excuse to go again soon!
I want some hot and fresh cooked goods at the market!
Like to find something from the northwest.
To give as a gift for family thats coming from new Orleans. They need a uplift from there flooded area.
I love last minute!
This is the first Christmas I won’t be able to spend with any family. But my friends are taking me in this year, so I would like to get them something appreciative!
I love the Saturday Market, but I never get to go since I always work weekends! :(
I would love to attend this festival to find beautiful unique hand crafted gifts to give to my loved ones for Christmas!!
love supporting local businesses!
Ohhh! I would love a giftcard so I can support my local crafters and artists WHILE gifting to my family and friends
I’m broke yet commited to giving local gifts – not an easy combo.
This is a great idea!!
This is amazing! Love PDX!
I am pretty broke right now but my mom deserves something nice. Would be really helpful and we both love Saturday Market’s hand made crafts.
Can it really be the 7th of December? Yup, I see last minute shopping in my future and what better place to do it than Saturday Market?!
