Consider getting your coffee at a local coffee shop, pick-up a goodie at a neighborhood bakery or cupcake shop, treat yourself to a cute new shirt at a local boutique, maybe find a fun activity or class that you have wanted to take in your community.

There is something good about strengthening the community around you, and supporting them.  I am a firm believer that in our democratic society, our dollars spent are our greatest vote, so go out and vote for a business you appreciate and want to stay in the neighborhood.
