BBB Encourages Small Business Shopping

INDIANAPOLIS —  For the fourth year in a row, the Better Business Bureau is supporting Small Business Saturday on Nov. 30. Small businesses are the cornerstone of any community, creating jobs, spurring local economic growth and giving back to society.
In recent years, small businesses have been overshadowed by the holiday hype of “Black Friday” and “Cyber Monday,” which tend to emphasize major retailers. But small businesses have much to offer holiday shoppers.
The Better Business Bureau serving Central Indiana urges consumers to support the small businesses in their communities on Nov. 30, the Saturday after Thanksgiving.
It’s the perfect time to take a break from the crowded shopping mall, and instead check out the small stores and businesses in your neighborhood. You’ll find unique gifts, gourmet foods and more to make your holidays distinctive, fresh and fun. You might even discover your new favorite store.
Don’t forget to go out and shop at your local businesses on Nov. 30. The more businesses and shoppers that get involved, the bigger and more beneficial the day will be for local communities. Remember to support your favorite locally-owned businesses all year long.
