More ways for you to benefit from the Go Local program in Fort Frances.
A Premium Members Club has been created which rewards any current member a $25 gift card if they use their local rewards card 40 times over the next year.
Drysdale says the introduction of the Premium Members Club is a good way of reward members who use their card frequently.
Local consultant Tannis Drysdale says it also expands on an initiative tried at the end of 2017 that encouraged members to use their cards at least 12 times in November and December.
About 40 people received $25 dollar gift cards as result.
Drysdale says participating in the local rewards program also increased during that time.
Cards were used 800 more times in December than in the same month in 2016.
The program, now in its fourth year, is aimed at increasing spending at local merchants.
Points are earned every time one shops at a participating business.
Card holders are rewarded with a $25 gift card every time they accumulate 300 points.
