The Shops at Heavenly Village are working hard to encourage local residents to enjoy all the village has to offer. Many merchants are offering discounts and special coupons along with the free parking to entice residents to visit the shops.

Sign up for coupons that will be emailed to you every other month.

Then every six months, the shops draw a name for a $1,000 shopping spree from those who have signed up to receive the emailed coupons. Silke Rover, a South Shore mom of three kids, was the latest winner.

There will be another chance to win in November for anyone who is signed up before Nov. 15.
