When people shop local it truly makes a difference. Many of our small town businesses were forced to close their doors during the pandemic for months and are trying to just survive and make a living. These same businesses are the many of the ones who support our schools, our stock show kids, and various non profits in our community and surrounding communities.
This event will help small business and their customers at the same time.
Our community has always opened their hearts and pocketbooks to help others in need. We are so fortunate to live in the great place we call home, Devine.
“Shop at Home MARKDOWN MANIA” event is this Saturday. Enjoy the shopping opportunities it offers, the savings, and drawings!
