MyHigh.St is an independent retail emporium showcasing some lovely independent shops in a one-stop online shopping experience. Originally the site featured favourite shops from the high streets of West Country towns, but it is growing and developing to include high streets from all across Britain and the local communities they support.
With all the feel good factor of supporting local businesses, teamed with all the convenience of online shopping, MyHigh.St offers consumers the opportunity to choose independent retailers over the big chain stores for their Christmas shopping. 70p in every £1 you spend goes towards supporting communities and high streets, helping them to thrive. That definitely makes buying through MyHigh.St a 'feel good shopping' experience!
There are lots of little quirky shops featured on MyHigh.St, selling things from homewares to fashion to toys to hampers to confectionery. So there really is something to suit all tastes. It's like browsing through an eclectic range of shops on a bustling High St, except this High St is open 24/7 and accessible from the comfort of your own living room. It's a 21st century way to support the small, independent retailers who offer great goods, great service and competitive prices. Plus it allows you to virtually visit these high street retailers you'd have otherwise never found and discover somewhere new to shop. It's opening up the world of the local, independent retailer allowing them to reach out and show us all what they can offer us. MyHigh.St is giving small businesses a chance to compete with the online giants and helping to protect our local high streets. Everybody wins!

Something for me so I can have a hot drink on the go (and reduce my hefty Starbuck's spends!)
As you can see, there really is a very diverse range of products to suit all tastes and budgets. My wish list is filled with products that are fun, quirky and quite unique. Knowing that buying these items would be helping a small business to thrive is a real bonus.
If you want to 'shop local' but with all the convenience of online shopping do check out what's on offer at MyHigh.St.
