It's Valentine's Day! Let's remember to spread a little love to all of the local businesses in the Middle GA area. Are you thinking of going to dinner tonight? Buying a gift, flowers, or even some jewelry? Shop local. When you support small businesses in the Robins Region and shop locally, you are supporting your neighbors and they are more likely, in turn, to keep the money you spent with them local as well.
