I read about this on Lulu & Tutz's blog. You can click on the image to go to the website for the project.
Think of 3 independently owned stores you would miss if they were gone.
Stop in and buy something because your purchases are what keeps these businesses around.
For every $100 you spend in an independent store, $68 of it stays in the local community. In a national chain, only $43 stays.
For more info click on the image above.
Where will you be going to help support your local community?

I scooped this up and sent it in a fax to a batch of my PA retail customers today--about 200 or so--and sent it to my wholesalers and rep company's main office--this is great. Thanks for finding it and spreading the word.
Can't wait to meet you--when are you sending your app?? ;)
This is so exciting, exactly why I posted it! I hope it keeps spreading!!
(P.S. Trying to figure out scheduling....I don't think I can be there in May to set up, but possibly in June. Even if I don't set up, I will probably be out to check it out in May!)
