Spending your dollars locally

[sheclown]

According to info that SAMBA put out from the 3/50 program,

If you spend $100 in locally owned independent businesses,  $68 returns to the community

If you spend $100 in a national chain only $43 stays here.

If you spend $100 in online purchases, $0 stays here.

Want a strong neighborhood?  Spend your money here.
