COUNTIES CASH: Shop local in SDG and win big

Shop local in SDG.

THE COUNTIES, Ontario - As more businesses reopen following months of lockdowns and stay-at-home orders, the United Counties of SDG wishes to celebrate the kickstart of the local economy with a contest - COUNTIES CASH.

HOW IT WORKS

It's pretty simple. Between July 12 and 23 whenever you visit an SDG business (any business) snap a selfie and post it to Twitter or Facebook with the hastag #shoplocalSDG. On July 26 we will randomly choose 12 winners who will each receive $100 in Counties Cash.

The Counties Cash prize packs are broken down by each of the six local municipalities in SDG. There are two $100 Counties Cash prize packs per municipality. Winners must spend their Counties Cash in the local municipality attributed to that particular prize. Counties Cash can be spent on anything from groceries to a haircut, car repairs or a wonderful meal in any of our fantastic restaurants.

Winners will be contacted via social media.

"The COVID-19 pandemic has been especially trying for local small businesses," said SDG Warden Allan Armstrong. "We want to focus our efforts on promoting our small businesses at every opportunity. So visit local businesses, snap a selfie, and good luck!"
