I don’t do a lot of shopping and most of the shopping that I do is online, but I love small businesses and often wish I had more time to go out and explore some of the ones nearby. This year, between dealing with morning sickness and partial bedrest I have been doing nearly all my shopping from my computer. My husband decided things weren’t complicated enough so he went out and broke his ankle. Between the two of us, we’re a bit of a mess. We’re feeling housebound though so we’re taking the chance to head out for Small Business Saturday to explore some of our local small businesses today on a short outing to tackle some of the items on our holiday shopping list.
If you haven’t already heard of Small Business Saturday, it comes with some great financial perks for you. If you have an American Express card, you’ll receive a $25 statement credit for shopping at a small business. Your purchase must be $25 or more and must be made today (November 26, 2011). See additional Terms and Conditions for details.
I’m heading out to one of our favorite local toy stores that I haven’t been to in years simply because I often forget that it’s there. What’s your favorite small business?
