No. 327 - Small Business Saturday

One of my favorite local small businesses shared a link on Facebook today to a Facebook Fan Page called Small Business Saturday. The posting read:

First there was Black Friday, then Cyber Monday. This year, November 27th is the first ever Small Business Saturday, a day to support the local businesses that create jobs, boost the economy and preserve neighborhoods around the country. Small Business Saturday is a national movement to drive shoppers to local merchants across the U.S. More than a dozen advocacy, public and private organizations have already joined American Express OPEN, the company’s small business unit, in declaring the Saturday after Thanksgiving as Small Business Saturday. Join the movement, spread the word! For more info: http://www.smallbusinesssaturday.com.

Cool idea, especially in these troubling economic times.
