All you have to do is buy at least $150 in Chamber gift certificates and we’ll give you an extra gift certificate worth $25. That’s right, spend at least $150 with us and you’ll get an extra Christmas gift worth $25 for someone, or yourself!
This promotion begins Nov. 1st at 8am and will end at noon on Dec. 22nd. We are open Monday through Friday from 8am until 4:30pm. If you would like for your gift certificates to be ready when you come in, just call ahead and tell us how much you are wanting to spend and any names you may want on the cards.

It’s just about Nov. and it’s time for the Holidays! Now, you may think the Holidays don’t actually begin until around Thanksgiving.
However, for the Greater Clinton-Area Chamber of Commerce, we are ready to give you a chance to win…several chances to win, actually.
It’s the Clinton Chamber’s Fourth-Annual ‘Receipt to Receive’.
Beginning Oct. 30th, folks can bring in or email a receipt from a Clinton Chamber-member business and they will then be entered to win. Thus, Receipt to Receive.
At the Chamber, we will copy, scan or print that receipt and get your name and phone number. Keep in mind that the item or items on your receipt has to be at least $25 in total and those items need to be purchased from members of the Clinton Chamber to be entered, but you can enter multiple times each week with different receipts. Each week, those receipts will be entered into a drawing to win $25 in Chamber gift certificates. We will give our prize away each Monday beginning Nov. 6th. To be entered to win each Monday, you must bring at least one receipt to the Chamber that previous week. All qualifying receipts will be eligible for our grand prize giveaway.
NEW THIS YEAR: WHOEVER BRINGS IN THE MOST RECEIPTS FROM MULTIPLE CHAMBER BUSINESSES WILL GET 10 EXTRA ENTRIES INTO THE GRAND PRIZE DRAWING!
On Dec. 22nd at noon, we will take ALL those receipts entered and draw the big winner of $200 in Chamber Gift Certificates.
The Clinton Chamber of Commerce is giving away $375 in Chamber gift certificates with our seven weekly winners and that grand prize winner of $200 in Chamber gift certificates.
TO HELP SPREAD THE CHEER, PLEASE TRY TO BRING RECEIPTS FROM MULTIPLE CHAMBER BUSINESSES DURING THIS PROMOTION.
We are open Monday through Friday from 8am until 4:30pm at 200 South Main St.
