Manistee Downtown Dollars are a great gift idea!

Downtown Dollars are a fantastic gift idea for that hard-to-buy-for person on your list during the holidays, or anytime as a sign of appreciation or as a "thank you" to a friend. They also make great reward items for employee safety & performance, additions to gift baskets and stocking stuffers! Downtown dollars are accepted throughout the Manistee commercial district "same as cash" - you'll really appreciate the flexibility. See list of participating businesses to the right.

Choosing Downtown Dollars not only makes great gift sense, but also promotes your local economy by keeping dollars in the community, at local independent retailers and service businesses.

Downtown Dollars come in $10 denominations and havea five-year lifespan. As an example, the 2010 dollars will not expire until December 31, 2015.
