Tory Johnson brings 'Deals & Steals on Wheels' to Philly
So far this week, she has traveled to Boston, Dallas and Chicago, and now Philadelphia-area businesses had a chance to step into the spotlight.

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Good Morning America's Tory Johnson brought her exclusive Deals and Steals on Wheels tour to Philadelphia on Thursday morning.

She's been traveling the country all week, highlighting local businesses in different cities.

Our Alicia Vitarelli joined her on Independence Mall for a fun morning, shining a big spotlight on six Delaware Valley entrepreneurs.

"This is about supporting Philly, and supporting these Pennsylvania-based small businesses," Johnson says, "and you feel good about supporting them. Plus, you're going to save 50% on every single item. You can't beat that deal."

Former Phillies player and coach Milt Thompson was on hand to unveil the deals, like Downingtown's TBJ Gourmet's bacon jam.

"This started at an Eagles tailgate," says TBJ Gourmet owner Michael Oraschewsky. "Everyone said we would be crazy not to put it in a jar and sell it. And we're not crazy, so we put it in a jar and started selling it."

Bumbleberry Farms' homegrown honey is made by an all-deaf or hard of hearing staff.

Chester-based FBF Body makes apparel aimed at making you to look and feel good.

"We want people to feel comfortable in their clothes when they work out," says Zakia Blain, the CEO and Founder of FBF Body. "It's about looking good and being confident."

Perkasie-based Eric & Christopher hand makes textiles.

"Our slogan is 'Life is better local,'" says Chris Kline, the owner of Eric & Christopher. "It's all handmade in Bucks County."

Luv Bug Co. is also based out of Perkasie. It's a mom-inspired line of UPF 50, sand resistant towels.

"It's moisture wicking," explains Cindi Roe from Luv Bug. "It's a quick dry. You leave them out in the sun for 30 minutes and it's totally dry."

RainCaper makes art inspired rain capes, umbrellas and accessories.
