I keep seeing these “Loyal to Local” signs in the Iron Mountain area and I can’t help but laugh.

Funny how these places want me to shop in their businesses but yet when these people go school shopping or Christmas shopping, they usually do it somewhere else, such as Green Bay and Appleton.

Or how about the vacations they take — Florida, Belize, Germany, Cancun, the Bahamas.

No, I’ll continue to shop where I feel I’m doing good — and at a place I can afford.
