Seamus Raines Folks, This is how we as a people talk care of ourselves. Pick 3. Spend 50. Save your local economy.

Julie Kubsch

Julie Kubsch definately did the 3/50 today all before 9:30am!!!! Premium Pet Supply for "lennie food" and a new winter coat for him, Hundman Do-It Center for faucets and knobs, Bevande for Coffee and oh yes, Country Gingham on Saturday. Fun, Fun, Fun shopping local!

Elizabeth Nolin Pickett

Elizabeth Nolin Pickett What an absolutely awesome 'task'... I am going to spread the word. I have had a retail store for 16 years now. It started out slow and then went great for awhile - now I can hardly get locals to visit - even when I send them an invitation! I am utterly at a loss...I will start educating my consumers.

Jt Pedersen Personally, I enjoy parking 15' from the front door, frequently being greeted by the owner, and finding what I want 20' inside the door. Much more pleasant than a 1/4-mile hike just to -get- to the front door:).

Eric Pederson "Big box stores can give a false sense of economy. Buying at the best small local stores is often a better deal, and it keeps our local friends going." - Kulokoo

Dee Dee Hendeles Brilliant idea.

Don Trivisonno

Don Trivisonno I try to buy items from local shops/restaurants to keep them open. You may spend a wee bit more up front, but the attention and service is well worth it!

Jared Willis

Jared Willis Going to a local bricks & mortar tomorrow to pick up my wife's birthday cake. Great project!!!

Jennifer Luntsford Mourikis

Jennifer Luntsford Mourikis This is a great project! I'm watching a lot of the small, local businesses in my town disappear...it's so sad. I love the concept and need to make more of an effort making it a reality in my town.
