Celebrate Pi Day With Pizza Around Rockford
March 14th is a day proudly celebrated by mathematicians, scientists, and all those who appreciate their work. It's Pi Day!

One option is to eat a pizza from a top Rockford restaurant. Here are a few pizza restaurants our real estate agents recommend visiting for the occasion.Â

Rockford, IL: Where to Shop Small Nov. 27
Small Business Saturday on Nov. 27 is an opportunity to shop at and support local businesses, which are the backbone of many towns and cities. The U.S. Senate unanimously voted in support of Small Business Saturday in 2011, which means this is the holiday's 10th anniversary! Make sure you get out there and shop at locally owned Rockford businesses in celebration. Our real estate agents have a few excellent shops to recommend.
- Salvaged by Sonya: 330 E. State St., Rockford, IL 61104
Salvaged by Sonya is a local retailer of vintage, retro, and re-purposed goods. The store opened in 2011 — the same year that Small Business Saturday officially began. You'll find all sorts of unique trinkets on their shelves, from vintage lamps to embroidered pillows.
This would be a great place to do some holiday shopping or find some fun decor for your new home. The owners also hold estate sales if you're ever in need of that service.
