#theresamobforthat Basket Switch Out- Everyday Shopping

There is a popular hashtag in our MOB Community- #theresamobforthat.  We take so much pride in knowing that our tribe, and directory features a MOB for pretty much every product and service.  

One of my main missions of the MOB is to promote Mom Owned Businesses, and teach our community how to support each other.  That is why I am creating a blog series to highlight how true it is,  #theresamobforthat.  

This first one is starting out with the basics.  These are items you are putting in your basket every week.  Make the switch and impact the lives of a small business owner, by just purchasing items you already need in your home. I love knowing that when I place my order, a Mom is doing a little happy dance.  

The biggest thing I hear, when promoting shopping small, is that the price is too expensive.  In my experience, I only spend about $15-$25 more per month on buying from a MOB rather than a big box store [including my luxury makeup items- which will be mentioned on a future blog]. In all instances, the quality is better and much safer for my family.  I plan ahead and usually work out a way to order in bulk to save on shipping.  Often, these companies have a starter package that allows you to order all of the items for a huge discount.  Since most of the cleaning items are concentrated, they last way longer and end up saving hundreds in the long run.  

Most importantly- as a business owner, it is a great investment buying from other small business owners.  Supporting others makes them want to support you!  Win, win!
