The Power of Choice

Every time you make a purchase, you're exercising power of choice. The choice is yours. You have the power to strengthen and enrich your local community.

-When you shop at a locally owned business 45 cents of every dollar stays in Arizona - versus only 13 cents at a national chain, and, your money is re-circulated over and over and creates up to 75% more tax revenue to our community & state.

-When you shop online with out-of-state companies, it doesn't contribute a dime to the local economy.

-Independent businesses raise the standard of living in your community because they take their profits and buy products & services from other local businesses, thus creating more & more tax revenues needed for the community to thrive.

-Independent businesses are unique enterprises that contribute to the character of our community by offering a more diverse selections of goods and services.

-Independent businesses provide meaningful service with a personal touch (like winding yarn). It matters to them that you are satisfied and will come back again.

You can make a difference by making a decision to find and patronize a locally-owned business, wherever possible.
