“Support your local anything”

“Support your local anything” is a business saying that has been printed on many images. It’s another version of “buy local” or “eat local” or “shop local.”
     
“RT @DistillingWater Support your local anything!” was posted on Twitter by Kim Conklin on June 1, 2009. “Saw a great shirt while walking to the office this morning: Support Your Local Anything” was posted on Twitter by Shelley Bynum Sharpe on October 20, 2009.
