10 REASONS TO SHOP LOCAL

1.  Shopping locally can save you money, supermarkets are designed to take money off people

2.  To promote community well-being -  Do you have a chat to the shopkeeper when you buy your
     loaf of bread or newspaper - try doing that to the self-checkout machine!

3.  Local shops are for everyone not just those who can drive to the retail park

4.  Shop local to protect local distinctiveness which is precisely what makes Glossop so special

5.  Local shops value you more - they listen to you and try to stock the things you ask for

6.  Shopping locally saves services, if the shops go then so will the dentist, hairdresser and others
     that trade around the local shops

7.  Shopping locally keeps money in the local community, it helps make the locality more prosperous

8.  Shopping local provides local jobs

9.  Shopping locally helps environmental sustainability

10. Shopping locally retains our community
