But seriously...when it comes to shopping... The East Village Community Coalition has released the 3rd edition of its "Get Local" Shopping Guide. As the EVCC notes:
Remember, when you choose locally over mega-chains, you:
-Create local jobs with fair living wages
-Choose creativity and personality over uniformity
-Keep more money in the community
-Provide economic activity and stability
-Sustain small business owners who strengthen the local economy
-Defend our neighborhood's identity
-Fight the lie that low prices at chain stores make up for the loss of local business ownership
