We had one of our busiest days ever during BuyCincy’s Cincinnati Unchained event this past Saturday. Supporters of Sierra Club Miami Group, which received 15 percent of our Unchained sales, and other shop-local supporters kept the store full most of the day. One woman said she hit all 45+ participating stores. That’s a lot of shop-local love.

The Unchained movement continues the day after Thanksgiving 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Nov. 28 in Over-the-Rhine during Holidays in the Bag. Participating stores are offering 20 percent off everything you can fit into a special neighborhood shopping bag ($3), purchased at the Gateway Quarter Information Center across from MiCA 12/v. Bag sales benefit Tender Mercies.

Participating stores include:

1. Park + Vine, 1109 Vine St.
2. City Roots, 1133 Vine St.
