Warrington market is supporting a national high street shopping campaign promoting local independent retailers and providing bargain offers for shoppers.

Warrington, along with over 40 other towns across the UK, is backing the Totally Locally National Fiver Fest, which runs from 5 – 12 October, to encourage shoppers to visit their local market, town centre and high streets to take advantage of lots of £5 promotional offers.

All of the market traders will be taking part by putting on special £5 deals for the duration of the campaign. Keep a look out for posters around the market and online, promoting all of the individual fiver deals on offer.

Fiver Fest is encouraging shoppers to spend their money locally. If every adult in Warrington spent just £5 a week at their local independent shops and businesses, instead of online or at big supermarkets or chain stores, it would be worth around £40 million to our local economy.

The Fiver Fest is part of the award winning Totally Locally Town Kit – a free marketing campaign for towns to use, which has been hugely successful in helping towns to buck the trend of declining high streets.
