Why Spend It! in Escondido?

Spend It! In Escondido - Buying Here Benefits You!
  • Enhance our quality of life. Your taxable purchases contribute to the general fund for city-provided services like police and fire, senior services, libraries, street maintenance, street lights and parks. 1% of gross sales generated in the city stays here.

  • Support our community. Show loyalty to the businesses and other entities that make our city great. It's convenient too.

  • Improve the health of the local economy and improve the environment for all business.

  • It's good for local businesses, and assures us a vibrant place to work and live.

  • Save time—freeways continue to be in gridlock and just waste your time and gas. Stay in the neighborhood, take your time to explore the wide variety of goods and services right in your backyard.

  • Save energy—gas is expensive. A weekly trip even to a neighboring city adds up to an additional $10–20 per month in gas costs.

  • Every purchase made outside Escondido benefits another city's general fund.
