Just in time for you-know-what, the Downtown Franklin Discount Card has returned, thanks to the Downtown Franklin Divas and Dudes.
Mary Christy of Mackans, said this is the second year for the card to be used, and it will be honored by 20 merchants in that shopping area.

Each card costs only $10 and is good for a year; the expiration date is Tuesday, Oct. 31, 2017. Christy said that the discounts can be used daily.
As from the first time, the program has a two-fold purpose: First, increasing business and drawing in more people to shop locally. Second, the money raised from the cards will be dedicated to getting a sign on Route 58 that also urges people to stop, visit, shop and learn about the historic district.
“We’re working together as a team,” Christy said of her fellow merchants.
To day, about $1,700 has been raised.
Although the official cost has not yet been researched, she figures the price will be close to $7,000.
