A Day at the Fair
Last week, the Common Wealth, Common Wisdom team spent a day at the St. Lawrence County Fair in Gouverneur. When we managed to pry ourselves away from the games, the animals and the maple sugar candy, we set up an informational booth and conducted interviews with some local entrepreneurs.

Save a Dollar, Be Creative!
We asked passers-by at the Gouveurneur fair to share the creative ways they like to save money in tough times by writing or illustrating their technique on a 3x5 index card. We were pleasantly surprised by the number of contributors who had something to add to the pool of common wisdom, (with colored markers, no less!) and so we’ve compiled a slide show of the best of these tips for all the penny-pinchers out there. Click on the photo to see them all.
