Shopping locally can help make the difference between a thriving community and a ghost town.
Did you know that every dollar spent in local stores generates another dollar in revenue for other stores and businesses in the community. The old saying what goes around comes around is very true. By shopping locally we provide jobs for individuals and generate tax revenue that diminishes the need to raise tax rates later. By shopping in Sharp County, we support the local businesses in our community and receive good friendly service from people we know. Also we generate money for our local government and schools and provide jobs for our children, both part and full-time, after school, during the summer and after graduation.
