Metro Chamber of Commerce promotes savings program Metro Chamber of Commerce officials are touting a new savings program they say will give their small businesses the buying power of large companies. Member businesses will receive discounts on services such as shipping, computers, office supplies and rental cars. Chamber spokeswoman Cara Clarke said the program arose after Chamber leadership examined typical expenses of its members and came to a conclusion. "Why not save some money off of that off of the chamber's collective buying power?" Clarke said. Included in the savings are up to 30 percent on UPS shipping and Dell computers and up to 70 percent at Office Depot. There are also discounts on email marketing software Constant Contact, legal service LegalShield and workers compensation, dental and vision insurance. Brian Mosko, owner of Bacon Boys, a food-truck business that sells paninis and pressed sandwiches, is taking part in the program. Mosko called the printing bills "incredibly significant," reducing bills of $180 to as little as $30 or $40 for menus or coloring pages for children.
