“Anyone who believes the competitive spirit in America is dead has never been in a supermarket when the cashier opens another checkout line.”
Ann Landers
In 2018, Harrisburg Magazine’s Simply the Best went digital. For the first time, voting would take place online rather than the paper ballot. The new method allowed results to be more precise and have more categories: 237 categories to be exact. When the results were released in the August 2018 issue, 728 winners were announced. Below are the winners for the Local Shopping Categories. Click on any of the business names for more information about them. Don’t forget to check out the other 2018 Simply the Best Winners or check out a list of All 2018 Simply the Best Categories.
