I think it peer-to-peer recognition is great and reading about makes me smile.<br /><br />The Dora Dollars program is being Beta tested by the MDVMBA for working out the kinks with ease of distribution and redeeming dollars for potential offering to visitors.<br /><br />In addition, the post shares and describes a local business owner's experience shopping and dining downtown ... I've actually never had Ice Cream at the Big Twist, but now I'm interested in trying it. <br /><br />If I were a visitor, I would be much more excited about the $600 give-away weekend that the Merchants are offering. Take a look at that and enter!<br /><br />In addition to the many out-of-town readers and visitors, we also have a lot of locals that read and contribute the to blog and I think it's nice for them to see the Merchants working together and using the Dora Dollars program for peer-to-peer recognition.Rachellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3869603740797028958.post-68590266897680521822009-06-11T18:33:01.548-04:002009-06-11T18:33:01.548-04:00Problem being---this particular "Dora Dollars...Problem being---this particular "Dora Dollars" program is NOT geared toward visitors--it is for member merchants ONLY! Again, why would the casual visitor to Mt. Dora care about something a merchant has won? How does that encourage that visitor to shop in Mt. Dora? Sure the blog might be entertaining, but, from the standoint of the visitor, it doesn't seem to encourage local shopping by visitors!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3869603740797028958.post-45141766393215287722009-06-04T10:34:59.269-04:002009-06-04T10:34:59.269-04:00I think the Dora Dollars program is great!
