You have probably heard of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. In between there is now Small Business Saturday on November 26, 2011. On this day, shop at a store that keeps revenue in the area. Frequent small businesses to give them a boost! Go to the website to see a video.
With the movement recognizing the 99%, we know that small businesses fall mostly in that category . Speak with your wallet. It is your decision how you spend your money! Support independent businesses.
Looks like American Express is the proud sponsor of this, which is a surprise to me. The City of Emeryville City Council proclaimed November 26, 2011 "Small Business Saturday" at our Oct. 4 city council meeting.
