BIA Bucks
What is the BIA buck?
This is truly a gift that is perfect for everyone! The BIA buck is the standard dollar used on a regular basis by consumers in our community. BIA bucks are an economic booster to our BIA & Associate Members and enables consumers to support BIA retailers.
For special events, the BIA will donate BIA bucks to be awarded as prizes. Many local organizations have purchased BIA bucks as staff appreciation gifts and for other types of employee incentives.
BIA Bucks can now be purchased year round at a 5% discount, except during the Christmas Promotion. The Christmas Promotion runs from mid-November to December 31st each year. BIA Bucks can be purchased for a 10% discount during this promotion.


How can I pay for my BIA Bucks?
Via cash only.
They don't! BIA Bucks can be purchased at the Municipal Office and redeemed at businesses all year round. Similar to a gift certificate, they do not have an expiration date.
What denominations are available when purchasing?
BIA Bucks are available in $5.00, $10.00 and $20.00 denominations. These denominations are available year round.
What is the BIA Bucks Christmas Promotion?
When you buy your BIA Bucks between Monday November 17, 2025 and January 2, 2026 you will receive a 10% discount off your purchase. Dates are subject to change annually.
When you purchase and use your BIA Bucks by January 6, 2025, be sure to write your name and phone number on the back as you'll be entered into a draw to win more BIA Bucks.
NOTE - There is a $250.00 per person limit when purchasing. If you are a business wishing to purchase a large quantity for your staff, please contact our BIA Coordinator in advance.
