Noxon has a grocery store too
March 10, 2022
In the Ledger's front page article last week (3/3/22), words are misleading that read "Being the only grocery store between Thompson Falls and Sandpoint." I am always happy to see articles of local folks buying and running local businesses, this is a win-win for all of us.
We should all appreciate the article bringing to light the cost differences from larger to smaller stores. This is really a thing, a small town store buys less so they pay more. Buying local is the "bread and butter" of our communities, spending a little bit more, in my mind, is like a donation to our towns to keep our local businesses thriving. Every business owner is not rich and in NW Montana, grocery stores are like a seasonal business with tourist season being the busiest.
As a resident of Noxon I write this, shopping local first is a good motto and one that we should all take seriously.
