Which brings up a great topic…Black Friday. Who knew this was such a controversial topic? Memes flying encouraging us to not support Amazon because Jeff Bezos has enough money. Seriously?! Do you shop big box stores and Amazon? Or do you just shop local.

Here’s the thing, you cannot always shop local. Dylan needed to buy a new computer and he purchases it at Best Buy, which is a big box store. What defines a local business though? TWhat Does It Really Mean to Shop Locally?his is a business local to us and hires local people in the community and all of this supports our local economy.

Dylan and I both run our own businesses and do not have a store-front, but are we a local business? Supporting our businesses supports our local economy because it’s where we pay taxes and spend our money.

Interesting topic, right?! I’d love to hear your opinion on this.
