Iconoclast View: One week night for shopping local?
By Paula Pyzik Scott
Here's the briefest of editorials. A contributor to the Facebook page "45810 news and info" asked who would be in favor of the Ada hardware adding Sunday hours.
A majority of responders said, no, small business owners need a day off. Agreed! But if you work out of town, you may have only one day, Saturday, to shop local businesses.
Could Ada (and Bluffton) businesses get together and open one night a week until 7:00 p.m. and open later that morning? Send letters on this and other topics to [email protected].
