I had to go out shopping this past weekend, I needed to get a few things as we all do sometimes. First I went to get some gas, so I stopped at Kroger. Then I needed to get some medicine, so I stopped at Walmart. I needed some milk, so I stopped at Walgreens. Does anyone see anything wrong with this picture?
I there really a local owned business?
Yes there is, many of them. If I need some medicine, maybe I should go to Barney's Pharmacy. If I need to get some gas, maybe I should go to Greg's Gas Plus. If I want something to eat, Garlic Clove, Cutie Pies, Tako Sushi, Cadwallers, La Maison, etc. If I want it to go, Rhineharts can't be beat.
It is hard to support local business, we all want that quick and easy stop, but take a few minutes and support someone who really needs it, as a local business owner I would appreciate it very much.
