How much of every $100 you spend locally stays in Meridian?

This is the Meridian edition of the Good Circles Local Giving Index — the same methodology, localized to Meridian & Lauderdale County.

Every $100 spent locally in Meridian

• $10 back to you — automatic ~10% savings.
• $4 to a Meridian nonprofit you choose — 10% of the merchant's profit.
• $53 stays in Meridian vs about $14 at a chain — a ~$39 local swing per $100.

What one Meridian household adds up to

A Meridian household routing about $200/month of local shopping through Good Circles would, in a year, save about $240, send roughly $96 to a local nonprofit, and keep about $936 circulating in Meridian — without spending a dollar more. (Modeled projection.)

If Meridian shopped local together

Community-scale total coming soon. We publish the “if 1 in 20 households took part” figure only once we have a verified household count for Meridian & Lauderdale County — we won't estimate from an unconfirmed number. See the per-household math above in the meantime.
