With the economy the way it is, I feel it’s important to spread around the little bit of wealth I have. When I do, I like to support the businesses that are close to me. I feel that keeping people in my area busy is good for me as well. One way I do this is to use a site called local.com. It is a search engine on the internet that helps me find businesses that are close to home. I then take advantage of their services if I can.
I think the one feature that I use the most is to find local restaurants. We like to eat out from time to time and are always looking for new places to go. If I want Mexican food, I just look through the listings until I see a likely place to go. It’s easy to do and fun. They also have a local yellowpages service that comes in handy. That way I don’t have to spend time trying to figure out where my wife hid the telephone book!
I recommend this site to all those who want to support their neighbors. The local search option is quick and convenient. Another good thing is that you can add your own input about a business or service in your area. That makes the site a little more personal.
