Pick 3. Spend 50. Save your Local Economy...The 3/50 project

This is so important! As independently owned businesses around us are closing one by one we need to do something to help. Please go out and frequent our small business owners and do what you can to help!

Via Michael Caruso Real Estate Group:

PLEASE, support YOUR local economy!

The idea is to commit $50 each month to locally owned businesses. Maybe that means rethinking where you currently invest your money, opting to pick up that birthday card or pair of jeans in a locally owned business instead of the big box you’ve been going to. Or maybe it means eating out once a month because you realize slamming the brakes on all spending stalls economic recovery. And it means not shopping online, 99.99999% of online sales generate nothing for the community you live in. It’s just that simple.
