......to the RiverDogGeneralStore.com Blog. What is RiverDogGeneralStore anyway? Well, the idea began when several people moving to the area of CT asked me where they could fine various local products and services. You see, I am a real estate agent and many people have asked for this type of information. Sure, people can Google Home Depot and find out where the store is located, but what about the local grocery store, auto repair, or hardware store..? Shopping at local merchants is, as Martha says, "a good thing". It helps our neighbors and our community.
So, check out http://www.riverdoggeneralstore.com/. Spread the word to help both users and advertisers!
The next few paragraphs show only a few of our advertisers. As I mentioned, please frequent these providers of local goods and services. They are all great spots to shop and are run by great people.
