Shopping in town?
If you shopped out of town for Christmas gifts, or at any time in the past year - why?
One of Horizons Strategic Goals is to implement a “Gator Card” - a type of Shop Newell incentive to encourage citizens to spent their money in our community rather than out of town or county.
It might be beneficial to explore the many reasons that folks do go out of town to shop. Are there products that Newell just doesn’t offer? Is it because you can find it out of town more affordable? Are you working out of town and it’s easier to do your shopping there also? Simply explain why you shop out of town, maybe the feedback can help Horizons and local business owners to work to serve more of our citizens.

I love this idea! Very creative and a fun way to get people to think more about shopping locally. If you want a “high tech” solution, check out this website, an example of one of many companies who offer this type of service of “loyalty rewards” http://www.universalgiftcards.com/loyalty.htm
