DID YOU EVER DRIVE 50 to 100 miles or more to take advantage of a super-duper special? A local $50 item 50 miles away would have to sell for $33 in order for you to break even. THE AMERICAN AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION certifies that 16.5 cents is what it costs to drive your car one mile. So if you've driven 100 miles round trip to pick up that special, you'll have to add $16 to that purchase. That sweet buy can suddenly turn quite sour. AND EACH 100 MILES takes from 6 to 10 gallons of gasoline which the potential shortage of oil-derived fuels would encourage us to save. LOCAL MERCHANTS, whether they sell groceries, clothing, drugs, furniture, hardware, appliances or whatever, feature top line, nationally advertised products at competitivie prices These same merchants support your school, churches and civic groups. They help us all pay for the improvements that make this community a better place to live. SAVE YOURSELF SOME MONEY, help conserve energy and support your town.
