The 3/50 Project
Think of three businesses you'd hate to see disappear, then pop in and say hello....

Pick 3. Spend 50. Save your local economy.

Paul Reynolds Spreading the word about 3/50 here in Dedham, MA via our downtown civic group The Dedham Square Circle - "a circle of friends who care about the Square" - dedicated to protecting our historic downtown that now faces competition from a brand-new $250 million dollar "life-style center" (their name for "mall") . . . http...://www.dedhamsquarecircle.org/

Brooks Bloomfield Great idea but should be a year around habit. Always look locally first. It is up to us local small businesses not to rip off our locals however.

Tracy Skinner-Garner

Tracy Skinner-Garner What a GREAT idea to boost the "little shops" in the retail world! We have discussed just how to boost our sales with some other small business owner friends and this seems to be just the ticket! Thanks to the creators of the 3/50 project for remembering that, after all, it was the independent owners who began this great country through their dreams!

Speaking as someone who was once an indie brick and mortar owner herself, you are so, so very welcome. The tag line "Saving the brick and mortars our nation was built on" is literal--our lovely country owes much of its success to Mom and Pop businesses from coast to coast.

Happy Thanksgiving to all you lovely, wonderful, extraordinary souls who do what you do! Without you, our world would be pretty bland.....
