The Figueres consistory is once again allocating a budget of 125,000 euros to this initiative, which seeks to replicate the success of the first edition held before Christmas. The campaign, named “Si t’estimes Figueres, compra a Figueres!” (If you love Figueres, shop in Figueres!), has managed to add thirty more businesses, increasing from the initial 110 to nearly 140 currently.
The discount vouchers maintain the same format: two vouchers of 10 euros each for all residents over 18 years registered in the city. These discounts can be used in any of the participating shops or catering establishments, provided the minimum purchase is 20 euros.
To obtain the vouchers, residents can download them starting Friday, February 6 through the municipal website or request them in person at the Tourism Office, located in the Plaça de l’Escorxador. Once registered, users have a period of 15 natural days to use them.
The first discount voucher campaign, carried out between last October and November, generated a total economic injection of 346,603 euros for the commercial fabric of Figueres.
This figure includes the 106,470 euros contributed by the City Council and the 240,133 euros spent directly by citizens. In that edition, 6,352 purchases were registered among the 110 participating establishments, with an average expenditure per ticket of 54.56 euros.
