HOUSTON – Christmas is almost here and if you still have loved ones you want to give something to but aren’t quite sure what to purchase, you might want to give an experience rather than merchandise. Better yet, if it supports a local business during the pandemic.

The Texas Restaurant Association is sharing a list of restaurants that are selling gift cards. The gift cards support local businesses that may still be struggling in the pandemic.
