Why should I shop local?

3.11K views

I see a lot of push towards shopping local and supporting the local economy. However, the large national brands provide the same product for cheaper and provide more jobs than your local producer. Why should I pay more for an essentially equivilant product?

To add to all the great replies. The city that is near where I live has a 1.something percent tax that goes for infrastructure. They paid for a stadium out of this sales tax.
