Many thanks to all of you loyal Independent Shoppers who keep this website and Your Independent Stores going. Have you ever...

        * Driven past a chain store to get to Your Independent Store?

        * Placed a special order with Your Independent Store, where they cheerfully

           phone you when product comes in?

        * Been greeted by name in Your Independent Store?

        * Been grateful for the kids play area while you shop?

        * Knowingly paid a few cents  more for a product because it keeps the light

           on in Your Independent Store?

        * Attended a fabulous class or a weekend retreat at Your Independent Store?

        * Learned a new technique or how to use your existing tools, at Your

           Independent Store?

        * Spotted a new product on the internet, but gone to Your Independent Store

           to buy it?

If so, then YOU have helped to Support Our Stores & we Thank You!!!

Now we want to show our thanks to you and invite you to join our "Support Our Stores" Campaign. Here’s the deal...

First, mail us a receipt ASAP for $10.00 or more, from any store that you find listed on this site. (Click here for mailing address). Receipt MUST be dated 2008. (Don't have a Maps-2-Memories Store close to you?  You can shop any of these stores online and submit that receipt!)  As soon as we receive your receipt we’ll mail you your official S.O.S. Keytag (good for discounts!) and a link to a secret website for MEMBERS ONLY!

But wait... What’s that? What are the advantages to becoming an Official SOS Member?  Besides the cute, decorative keychain? Well, we’re glad you asked, because that’s the best part!  Here's what you get...

1. The official SOS keychain will get you a 5% discount at any Maps-2-Memories store on the first Saturday of every month, and other designated days throughout the year.  WOW!

2. It will also get you automatically entered in our monthly drawing for a fantastic SOS Box worth well over $100 in scrapbooking supplies, AND...

3. It gives you access to our secret website so you can enter our weekly Mile Marker Quizzes and monthly drawings.  You’ll have 4 chances to win every month, and every month we’ll give away over $100 in scrapbooking supplies, all year long!

Remember, you can’t enter and you can’t play without your keytag-- so get out there and get shopping and mail us your receipts today!

Simple enough?  We hope so.  After all, we all know “you get what you pay for,” and saving a few cents at a Big Box Store or on the internet won’t mean much if our Independent stores disappear. If that happens, the Big Box Stores will dictate all terms to the Industry Manufacturers and there will be no place to buy paper by the sheet, embellishments, and many of the things we all now take for granted. No more special orders, Friday night crops or classes. And no retailer who will pick up a line simply because customers want it. Those decisions will all be made out of a central office on the other side of the country.

So let’s get out there and do our part to keep them going!   All it takes is a $10 investment and you can help us Support Our Stores!
