nina and tom are now a part this awesome group of small business owners and individuals who want to spread the word about the importance of shopping at your local brick and mortar stores.
Take the pledge, spend a total of $50 a month between 3 local stores and help build your neighborhood economy.
Here are some suggestions:
Buy your cup of coffee 5 times a month from the independent coffeehouse, not Starbucks.
$5.00-$22.50
Buy your new broom or mop at your local/independent hardware store.
$9.00-$20.00
Buy one children's book/novel/cookbook/cd or magazine from your local/independent bookstore or music store and not Amazon.
$3.95-$34.95
Buy that special gift for a birthday, baby shower, wedding or anniversary by going to your local boutique and find something original and unique that can't be found at Target.
$20-$100.
Buy some ice cream or frozen yogurt 2 times a month at your local creamery or yogurt shop.
$3.50-$10.00
$50.00 adds up quick and you're done (but by all means keep spending if you can).
It just takes a little effort to get your mind out the big box stores.
We know you can do it.

Great idea!! We don't shop Wal-Mart for this reason...that it's such a monopoly with "Made in China" junk.
When I found your company (we can't shop you locally since we live in NV) I have been hooked! Birthday presents for each family member when they role around in the form of a "Made in America" t-shirt! Hooray!
Love this! I put it on my blog, too. =)
Keeping your money local should also apply to where we do our banking. Does our community support the local institutions?
