Contributions to the Business Community

When All Through the House opened, the owner’s goal was to provide the community with a place to purchase nice gifts and kitchenware locally, without having to go to Madison or Janesville for every wedding or birthday! In the years since it opened, All Through the House has seen Stoughton bloom with wonderful businesses and a great group of merchants that continue to want to provide the best for customers and have fun doing it! All Through the House likes the “WOW” factor, and seeks to give customers a fun experience in the store while they shop. It can be as simple as offering samples of coffees and snacks on a busy Saturday, or carrying packages to a customer’s car, or giftwrapping the item the customer has just selected. All Through the House has fun promotions in the store that involve and entertain customers. All Through the House has made good friends in regular customers—“people that came to us as customers and stay with us as friends!”
