An invitation from Myti, an AMIBA member and a local alternative to Amazon (starting in Vermont). They invite you to “kick the tires” and give The Local Finder a spin:
In November, we quietly shared The Local Finder with you all — a free web extension that automatically finds a local alternative on Myti when you shop online at big box retailers. The initial response has been amazing, and we are thrilled to share that we’ve made it even better and are ready to tell everyone!

So this is the official, official announcement of The Local Finder: a free web extension that helps Vermonters [any beyond!] automatically find local alternatives when they’re shopping online.
This extension is our next step in making local shopping effortless. When you’re browsing big box sites, the Local Finder automatically checks whether that product is available from a Vermont business, starting with Myti sellers, then shows you any local business alternative, Myti or not!
Breaking shopping habits is hard, but now you don’t have to. Shop like you usually do, and we’ll make it easier than ever to make your purchases match your values.
Installing and sharing it would mean the world. Your early feedback makes a huge difference in helping us make shopping local the easy choice!

Small but mighty,
