Elaine Suderman, Karen Kussmaul and Denise Fett are the October winners in the Bluffton downtown 3/50 Project.
They win an assortment of prizes from participating businesses as a result of their entry forms being picked in a random drawing.
Bluffton’s 3/50 Project is part of a nationwide effort that carried the tagline: “Save your local economy three stores at a time.”
This is Bluffton downtown merchant’s fourth year in sponsoring this promotion, which
encourages persons to pick three locally independent businesses, and spend $50 each month between the three.
