Women wearing red sweater shopping online and using credit card at home office

Though quarantine was not the best of times, many enterprising Concordians made the best out of it by starting Etsy shops or other side hustles to earn a little extra spending money.


If you’re looking for extra-special, handmade, one-of-a-kind gifts to give loved ones this holiday season, you’re in the right place. Support your fellow Falcons, shop small, and get amazing gifts for your loved ones this Christmas.

Check out some CUW side hustles below (shared with us via Instagram) and get shopping!
