Big Box Stores
You guys, we know it’s tempting to run to the big barbering shops to snag the tools and products you want. But consider seeking out the big box store deals this time around. Why? Because you can get all the practical things you’d need for your shop at major discounts.
We’re talking about TVs, sound systems, cameset upras for your shops, cleaning products, and furniture. Not only are these things likely going to be on massive sale, but it’s highly likely you can write a lot of these things off on your taxes because they’re specifically for your business.
