 Shoppers know that the Friday after Thanksgiving is called Black Friday. It doesn't get that name because of all the lines and chaos we've seen in recent years, rather tradition has it that Friday is the day that some retailers finally move "into the black" and start turning a profit for the year. I don't know whether that applies to the big box stores or not, but holiday sales are crucial to the success of many small businesses. Small Business Saturday was started last year as a day to remind consumers to support their favorite local business. These businesses are the backbones of a community and they won't thrive without the support of local shoppers. So after the Thanksgiving holiday, after the big sales of Black Friday, spend part of your Saturday shopping with your favorite Dayton area small business. The Small Business Saturday Facebook Page has all the details and includes a zip-code search engine to help you find a local business to support. Shop Small! |
