Support Small Store Saturdays
Sustainable economic power begins at home. During this holiday season, consider what you can do to support your local economy. Generally speaking, small businesses provide better service for comparable prices.
~ 6 cents of every dollar spent with a BIG BOX RETAILER is retained/re-circulated in a community. - Rocky Mountain Institute
~ 20 cents of every dollar spent with a CHAIN STORE is retained/re-circulated in a community. - Small Business Administration
~ 68 cents of every dollar spent with a SOLE PROPRIETOR/INDEPENDENT RETAILER is retained/re-circulated in a community. - Civic Economics, Chicago-based economic development consultancy
~ A dollar spent at a locally-owned store is usually spent 6 to 15 times before it leaves the community. From $1, you create $5 to $14 in value within the community. - Northwest Earth Institute's Choices for Sustainable Living
"Small businesses create two out of three new jobs, keep local economies alive and sustain our neighborhoods." -Ironton Tribune
