You care about the schools, businesses, and non-profits that make up your community. The decisions you make when you shop have a direct impact on the communities in which you live. When you shop at participating businesses with your Boston Community Change card, a portion of each transaction is returned to you as a cash rebate and a portion is directed to support the local Main Street organization and a nonprofit or school of your choice - encouraging you to shop locally and share locally.

Cards are FREE at www.bostoncommunitychange.org

When you order a turkey sammich, and the deli man instead gives you a smoked turkey sammich, your first instinct might be to open that thing up and show him the exact difference between what you asked for and what he gave you. And by â€œshowâ€ I obviously mean mashing it all over his face.

Jack cannot believe it's so hard to find a good pair of Doc Martens in Boston that he had to buy them online:

You should be able to buy them at 3 AM at the 7-11 along with a pack of condoms and some Doritoes.
