Looking for last-minute gift ideas? We’ve got you covered.
Check out these suggestions for easy, no-fuss additions to your Christmas shopping list — even for the notoriously hard to shop for.
Nearly all are owned by Tri-City residents, so you can shop local.
Crumbl Cookies
With two locations in the Tri-Cities, this custom cookie shop is sure to have something to anyone on your list.
Richland Crumbl Cookies franchise owner Kevin Hatch said they can accommodate just about any order, if you order ahead of time by using their app or calling.
It’s their first Christmas season in Richland, but they’re already a hit with locals.
“It’s been great. We’ve been busy these last couple of weeks,” Hatch told ther Herald. “We’ve sold a lot of gift cards, and had a lot of catering orders.”
Hatch said this week’s most popular flavors are Birthday Cake and Peppermint Bark cookies.
His advice?
“Get in here before 2 p.m. on Friday. A lot of people think we’re going to be open later,” he said. “For larger orders, if they let us know Thursday night, we can have it ready by Friday morning.”
Crumbl Cookies is open 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, and 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Christmas Eve.
Hatch also said they are taking orders for catering for New Year’s Eve parties.
Crumbl Cookies is at 2665 Queensgate Dr., Richland, and at 1102 N. Columbia Center Blvd., Kennewick.
