Many of us may be rushing out to grab up those Black Friday specials today and this weekend. Dave Hanks, CEO of the Rock Springs Chamber of Commerce wants to encourage everyone to spend their money locally.
Several studies have shown that when you buy from an independent, locally owned business, rather than a nationally owned businesses, significantly more of your money is used to make purchases from other local businesses, continuing to strengthen the economic base of the community.
Buying local is also good for the environment! Local business owners can make more local purchases which cuts down on the transportation and fuel costs.
