American Express launched a program in 2010 to get shoppers into small local businesses on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. What a great idea!
Kelly Parker, Executive Director of the Greater Vancouver Chamber of Commerce said to just get out and spend in the small shops owned by your friends and neighbors. “They give us the color and texture, the choice and opportunity,” she said. “Every time we support a small business, we’re investing in our futures.
Please shop deliberately. If you want to maintain downtown Ridgefield as the hidden jewel that it is, a big way to do it is to shop there. Our stores will be open all week-end, and they’re filled with unique items that will make your shopping a pleasure.
