By shopping at home, you help create
a greater tax base for our community to
draw from. And that means more money
for more and better trained and equip-
ped police and firemen. More money for
our ccmmunity means better and more
modern emergency services. Part of
every dollar you spend at home stays at
home and eventually finds its way back
to you. When you shop at home, you're
doing yourself a favor.
