Too late for some

Here is an excellent article from over the weekend about independent retailers around Mesa. It is a little too late for some. However, let's hope that a little extra publicity will help some of them out so we don't see more of them close like the independent coffee house in the Fiesta Mall area that I mentioned last week.

Check out Local First Arizona for more information. Having locally owned businesses is good for the economy and for tourism. When people come to town to visit, you aren't jumping to show them your Chilli's or TGIFridays. You want to show them something that they don't have at home. We need all kinds of retailers and businesesses to make up a thriving city.
