Small Business Saturday: A Day to Support Local Businesses

Small Business day TTC

This November 30, Small Business Saturday is your chance to show love to the local businesses that make your community special. Whether it’s the cozy coffee shop down the street, the boutique with one-of-a-kind gifts, or the family-owned restaurant that feels like home, shopping small makes a big impact.

What is Small Business Saturday?

Small Business Saturday started in 2010 to encourage people to shop locally during the holiday season. It falls between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, giving us a day to focus on the small businesses that bring creativity and character to our neighborhoods.

Why Shopping Small Matters

When you shop at a small business, you’re supporting:

Your Community: Local businesses create jobs and keep money circulating in your area.
Unique Finds: You’re more likely to discover gifts and products you can’t get anywhere else.
Hardworking Entrepreneurs: Every small business has a story, and your support helps them thrive.
