Shop Small & Impact Your Community on Small Business Saturday 2022
Each year in November, we can expect the onslaught of big-box store and name-brand holiday and Black Friday sales to dominate much of the digital ad space, TV commercials, billboards, and social feeds. And like many families starting their holiday shopping adventures, saving money on the best gifts is top of mind. But what slips most people’s minds is the importance of holiday shopping for small businesses across the U.S. that rely on the influx of holiday shoppers to sustain their businesses well past the New Year. As we anticipate Small Business Saturday 2022, we’re highlighting some of our favorite local small businesses to give you a few more shopping ideas as you head into the holidays.
This year, Small Business Saturday 2022 is on Saturday, Nov. 26. Just two days after Thanksgiving and the day after Black Friday. Whether you’re shopping online in the comfort of your own home or braving the cold to shop brick and mortar, we encourage you to support these hard-working small businesses.
