Patronize local business

Cheap products from one company may seem like a good thing to the many of us who are living on a limited income.
However, these stores that offer these cheap prices do so to outsell the competition. Once the competition has been eliminated and they are the only show in town, they are free to raise prices as much as they'd like.
I do not have as much money as I would like, but I choose to shop at local stores to keep them in business and encourage competitive pricing.
I applaud the Clark County commissioners for trying to keep big-box stores out of our area.
