Only Shopping Local Family Blog

http://onelocalfamily.com/2011/02/22/time-for-new-shoes-and-a-new-shopping-strategy/
This is a blog for One Local Family--they have commited themselves to only shop local for one year. They post their experiences,but what I like is not only that they are making sacrifices temporarily to keep their commitment but are learning some insights about themselves and enjoying the benefits. This blog about buying new running shoes is a great example. Their points about past shopping strategies are very insightful.
Check them out sometime and consider buying local yourself when possible.
