As small businesses across the nation start to reopen after being shuttered due to COVID-19, some owners are making changes, including cutting capacity.

Though business regulations in Cedarburg are the same as they were before COVID-19, business owners and consumers are not the same.

Holistic health and decor store Sissy & Me, also in Cedarburg, is taking more precautions. During the quarantine, owner Toni Murrenus and her daughter, Jessica, found that curbside business was a good alternative. "The problem was we had just ordered our spring and summer outdoor decor, and it was going to be a total loss if we didn't do something," Murrenus said."A few people gave themselves a sale. We kind of expected that, but the loss was just under $50 of what it would have been."

"We have not really opened doors," she said."Maybe we're going to have to map out and put the tape on the floor where people should stand and hold it to five or under in the store because it's not very big."
