Sarnia

Shop Local Week

It began three years ago in a two-day attempt to stem the flow of cross border shoppers on "Black Friday".

Now Blackburn Radio Sales Manager Martin Vrolyk says "Shop Local Week" has been extended.

He's noticed a marked shift in the number of people heading stateside to shop.

Blackburn Radio will be broadcasting live from over 60 local businesses.

You can track the sales on our facebook and twitter pages.
