‘Independents’ Celebrated
Suffolk, VA – The city of Suffolk is setting aside this week to celebrate “independents” — independent businesses, that is.
Locally owned restaurants, merchants, galleries and venues in the historical downtown area will offer special discounts and promotions to entice new and existing customers to visit their locations.
Folks who visit a participating business and make a purchase will receive a bingo-like card to take to other participating businesses. Once they get five stamps in a row, they can turn in the bingo card at the Suffolk Visitor Center, 524 N. Main St., to be entered into a drawing for prizes.
