Question of the day.
Besides taxes and utilities, where is it you spend the most money?
CateP brought up a good issue. She says she is going to spend her money locally. I started thinking about it and sorry to say I don't. Most of my money goes to car payments and paying off my way over stretched credit card balances. Even my mortgage is a company from out of state.
Other than that I have almost no choice but to spend locally. Being in Moultonborough, I would need to drive quite a bit to spend it anywhere else. LOL. I try to buy at the local lumber yards. A&B is my favorite as they have free delivery. Center Harbor for groceries. Skellys for most small stuff and gas Village Kitchen, Lago, Bob House, for dinners, etc. I pretty much stay within 80-100 miles of home most of the time so I guess that is still local?
So just wondering where we all spend our money? Do you order stuff online or buy from around town? It just got me thinking about how much I actually support local business.
