Our One Dime at a Time program provides an incentive to our customers to eliminate single-use plastic bags and develop stronger communities all at the same time.  At the register, customers will have the option to receive a 10 cent per bag refund as cash back off their receipt or they can choose to donate it to that month’s selected charity organization.  From July-Sept all donations will be benefitting Lost Dogs of Illinois a nonprofit who saw the need to provide education for dog owners on preventing the loss of their dog and to provide no cost resources to the owners of lost dogs to increase the chances of locating and being successfully reunited with their dog.  The program also benefits local animal control and shelters by decreasing the number of “owned strays” entering the animal control/shelter system and increasing the chances of finding an owner once the dog is in their care.

We’re celebrating our commitment to LOCAL. Join us for a vendor fair, highlighting our local products. Meander through the store and chat with our local vendors and put a face to the product!
