Our goal this year is a whopping 90\,000 receipts\n\nWhen you shop local you always pay it forward: \n\nShop at a large chain\, $47 of every $100 remains in the community through wages and additional purchasing.\nThis increases to $73 of every $100 when it is locally owned company. \nThose dollars then circulate in the community 75 times.\nThe simple act of shopping in Mission provides continual community benefit that lasts throughout the year!Businesses encourage your customers to submit receipts by making up a box for collection and displaying the Pay It Forward Sticker.
