FOX 23 -- along with This TV, My Network TV, and MeTV -- would like to form a partnership to help locally owned businesses attract more clients and customers.

 

“Shopping locally can have a disproportionate impact on the community, compared with shopping at a Big Box Store.  For every $100 spent in locally owned, independent stores, $68 return to the community through taxes, payroll, and other expenditures. This is nearly 3x the return of $23 from corporate-owned stores.”
