It is a joy and add's to the fabric of life when you take the time to search out the small retailer, restaurateur, etc.. and contribute to keeping your hard earned money in the community. These local business people need to spend money on product, accountants, food, clothes, etc... This keeps the local life-cycle functioning and helps fill your soul. Of course, we all need a Target run every once in a while but the rest can help promote local business and those people will probably buy the services you sell. It's funny how what comes around, goes around..... M.
