Happy Wednesday! The sidewalks have been cleared, the parking lot scraped of snow & ice and we're ready to serve you Okemah! Bear with me and read the entire post...could be lengthy...
We always talk about how important it is to shop local and unless you own your own business in a small town, it could be really hard to understand why it's so important. Our small businesses rely on you guys to keep us open and going. So, with that being said I'm going to put my money where my mouth is and offer a 10% discount to anyone who can provide a physical receipt or a text receipt (since some businesses like ours do not print them) for any purchase made today thru Saturday. All you have to do is SHOP LOCAL and provide a receipt to gain your 10% off at The Wooden Willow.
Listed below are the merchants that I will apply the 10% discount for. There may be more, but my brain could only remember the following or they may be closed this week.
