How much do you spend with locally owned business?

If you had to take a stab at it, how much of the money you spend on goods and services would you say you spend with locally owned businesses compared to national chains or internet sites in a given month?

What local goods or service do you think probably gets most of your loyalty?

Hard to say because we don't have a lot of stuff local, but as much as possible. So long as they offer decent prices and good services. If they're jackasses that price gouge, then no.

I would say 75-100. Closer to 80 ish. I would guess food and household needs are the hardest, as far is food I go to nunu's in youngsville. Doesn't rouses count as locally owned? I mean is New Orleans local for lafayette? It's not like a walmart or albertsons.
If so u can bump my shite up to 95

I like to support local restaurants, I avoid chain places and fast food joints 100%.
Try to shop at local supermarkets as much as possible.
If items are close in cost after
research I prefer to buy local.
Food/grocery items:
Up to 80% local
Luxury, electronics, hobby items:
Around 25% local

Outside of restaurants, zero. I am all about saving money.

Grocery shop at Rouses
Almost all of my restaurant and bar business goes to local places. I will never change that either even if it cost an extra $1

When I can that's where I'm going

Much as possible.

I like to buy local as much as possible, the few exceptions are places like Rotolo's, where i know the franchise owners and like to support them, so it's still kind of local

Unfortunately, not much at all...I pretty much do all of my shopping at stores like the wall marks..
I do eat fast food from time to time and that is typically locally owned, but the supplies they use are not local....
I would say 0 -5%
