3 - What 3 independently owned businesses would you miss if they closed down? Stop in. Say hello. Pick up something that brings a smile to you. Your purchases are what keeps those businesses around.

50 - If 1/2 the employed population spent $50 each month in locally owned independent businesses it would generate $42.6 billion in revenue. Imagine if 3/4 the employed population did that!

68- For every $100 spent in a locally owned independent store, $68 returns to the community through taxes, payroll and other expenditures. If you spend $100 in a national chain $43 says in the community. Spend $100 on line and nothing comes back to the community.

1 - The number of people it takes to start the trend - you!

Pick 3. Spend 50. Save your local economy and community!
