#shopsmall at these local businesses during Small Business Saturday
Sure, online stores are convenient, with their endless inventory and same-day delivery service. But local stores are stocked with holiday gifts too, and after a bad year for bricks-and-mortar stores, Small Business Saturday on Nov. 25 seems like a good day to support one. Here, we offer a partial list of independent stores, some of which we have covered, where you’ll find great holiday gifts. Have a favorite that we missed?
