Support Local Business This Year With Small Business Saturday

Everyone is pretty familiar with the after Thanksgiving sale “Black Friday,” where retail stores offer consumers reduced prices on their inventory. Black Friday is a win for both the consumers as well as the retail shops, as it allows individuals to purchase Christmas gifts at a slightly lower price and helps the stores with their bottom line during the slower winter season.

Your favorite local stores in the Blue Water Area are undoubtedly going to participate in Black Friday, but were you aware of Small Business Saturday? Small Business Saturday will be this Saturday November 26th from 11AM – 7PM, and continues each Saturday until December 17th.

Local shop owners will have sales and deals on their items just as they would on Black Friday, with the same goal, to boost income and sales during the slower winter months. Support your local business owners and entrepreneurs this season, as you may find better deals than your larger corporations, along with the service and familiarity that smaller businesses provide.
