Where can I purchase Chamber Bucks?
Chamber Bucks can be purchased from the Chadron Chamber of Commerce anytime during our normal operating hours of M-F 8:30-4:30. Chamber Bucks come in $5 increments. If you need more than $50 worth please call ahead (432-4401) so we may have ample time to prepare them for you, each $5 Chamber Buck has to be dated and signed by a staff member which can take some time to prepare when large amounts are needed. We accept Cash or Checks as payment for the purchase of Chamber Bucks.
-
Do Chamber Bucks Expire?
Like all great things, Chamber Bucks do expire. The expiration date is always one year after the purchase date of the Chamber Bucks.
-
Can Chamber Bucks be exchanged for cash?
Chamber Bucks are designed to be used to generate commerce and revenue locally. To allow Chamber Bucks to be exchanged for cash would be counterintuitive to the goal of the program.

Why did I not receive any change for the purchase I made using Chamber Bucks?
