Greenville kicks off local business blitz ahead of Merch Madness

Greenville is gearing up for Merch Madness, but local businesses are already feeling the push. Organizers are urging residents to participate in a week-long shopping blitz to support shops, restaurants, pharmacies, and small businesses affected by recent storms.

Participants are encouraged to spend at least $25 at any locally owned business in Greenville. They should then snap a photo of their receipt, ensuring it shows the date, total amount, and business name, and send it via Messenger. Each receipt submitted enters the shopper into a drawing to win $25 back for that same business.

Organizers emphasize the importance of shopping local to help strengthen Greenville’s economy. Residents are also encouraged to tag their favorite locally owned businesses on social media to boost awareness and participation.

The initiative aims to rally community support ahead of Merch Madness, a popular local event, by highlighting the importance of supporting small businesses during challenging times.
