What do Deena and Neil of Mortgage Express, NMLS-62738 & NMLS-205436 and Black Bear Restaurant have in common? Both love delicious local meals. Join the Jensens by patronizing our 30 - plus local member restaurants like Nicholas Restaurant, Heidi's of Gresham, Junki’s Riverview Restaurant, Original Roadhouse Grill, Uly's Taco Bar, The Rock Wood Fired Pizza and Spirits, and Spud Monkey's.

Thinking about Christmas shopping yet? These happy people at Migration Brewing's Ribbon Cutting in 2018 could easily be celebrating a stocking stuffer idea today. Perhaps gift certificates purchased from our members like The Hoppy Brewer, Boring Brewing Co., Intent Coffee or Barley Sprout Restaurant.

Many more! Shop Local!

Member Tips, Tools, & Press Releases

Is there a magic tool to diagnose my car’s check engine light?

Does a free scan or code read for your illuminated check engine light tell you what is wrong with your car? No, this code that is retrieved gives you the system affected that the computer is seeing, so it gives you a starting point for testing. It takes detailed pinpoint testing and results analyzation to properly diagnose a check engine light. That is why there is a diagnostic fee charged at professional repair facilities.

Do I need an app?

To get the most out of your health plan, I really encourage members to enroll in their plan’s websites and download their apps. It’s a great way to check out doctor networks, make appointments for telehealth and some have wellness features to keep track of fitness goals.

Cleaning almost any surface without chemicals is possible when you use high quality microfiber. Why?

Microfiber is well known to mechanically Pick Up everything! Mechanical cleaning (by hand) is faster and cleaner.
