Support your local businesses
By: Mae Rhine
Here’s a way to support the local business community as well as find that special gift.
The Independent Merchants of New Hope has "good neighbor" discount cards.
The cards are bring mailed to the nearly 10,000 residents of New Hope and Lambertville. And they are not just for the holidays; you can keep your card in your wallet for savings all year ’round.
The card provides discounts to many of New Hope’s shops, restaurants and attractions. Recipients can look up participating businesses and their offers at www.enjoynewhope.com, www.newhopepennsylvania.com and www.newhope-pa.com.
Participating merchants are staying open to 9 p.m. Fridays in December.
Residents should be receiving their cards soon.
Using the cards is a great way to help the small businesses of our area stay alive as they try to compete against larger stores and malls.
