SHOP LOCAL, SHOP SMALL
Bedford Revitalization, Inc is happy to celebrate another holiday season with this “Shop the Square” event. To encourage others to “shop local”, they are offering a special prize drawing for anyone who shops at participating businesses in Downtown Bedford. Customers will get a chance to enter the drawing just by stopping by the businesses and can get an additional entry by buying a product/service.
More than ever, this is the year that all of our local businesses need our support. Make it your goal to shop local and shop small for your gifts this year!
