You’ve heard about Black Friday but what about Small Business Saturday?

Held the first Saturday after Thanksgiving, the goal is to create a small business counterpoint to Black Friday by encouraging people across the country to support small, locally owned and operated businesses. By 2017 an estimated 108 million consumers reported shopping or dining at local independently-owned businesses on Small Business Saturday — generating roughly $12 billion in reported spending and showing that Small Business Saturday has become a new holiday shopping tradition.

You’ll be surprised to learn how many locally owned businesses we have here on The Loop so take some time this month and see what we have to offer. The Loop is anchored by 175 businesses and some of the best Saturday morning retail in town.  Whether you’re fixing up your car or sprucing up your home, grilling a steak or planting a garden, we can help with your next DIY project. We’ll even sell you the truck to get it all home.

Check out our listing of businesses on The Loop and we look forward to seeing you on Saturday, November 24!
