Malden Chamber of Commerce Announces Gift Certificate Giveaway

In celebration of National Small Business Week, the Malden Chamber of Commerce is forcing local small businesses to give away a combined $50 worth of their products.

Odd strategy? Perhaps. But at least Malden residents have a chance to win a gift certificate without trying very hard this week.

All they need to do is snap a photo of themselves shopping at a Chamber-affiliated store, slap on the hashtag “#‎ShoplocalMalden‬” and post it to The Malden Chamber of Commerce Facebook page before 1 p.m. on Friday, May 8, when the winner will be announced.

The gift certificate is good at any establishment that is a Malden Chamber of Commerce member.
