If you need an extra incentive to support local businesses, WilmingtonMADE now has a lottery reward system, where you can upload your receipts from participating businesses, or text photos of them to 302-433-6078, for a chance to win a gift card to a local business. One participant who uploads a receipt before March 31 will win a WilmingtonMADE gift basket full of gift cards and items from local businesses.

Some of the participating businesses include:

  • Maker’s Alley
  • The Queen
  • Lafate Gallery
  • Addi Naturals
  • Chelsea Tavern
  • Franks Wine
  • Squeezebox Records
  • Morgan’s of Delaware
  • Pinji’s Cafe

If you have a small business that offers goods or services and want in, you can register your business here.
