Here at Clever Girl, we think everyday is a Small Business Day. However, today
marks the "OFFICIAL"
SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY...
As you have probably heard, "Small Business Saturday" is now marked yearly on the Saturday after Thanksgiving. While I certainly applaud the acknowledgement of that day, shopping locally is really done 365 days a year--not just one!
Here, in Western Springs, we are fortunate to have many independent businesses that offer goods and services to the community. I am also encouraged thought the year by the many, many comments we hear from customers expressing their gratitude that we are here. So many of you do truly try and "look local first". It is no coincidence that communities that are thriving have actual downtown shopping areas--it's just a natural part of small town living. The convenience of avoiding a lengthy trip to the mall, or a pilgrimage to a big-box store is a huge asset. So, this weekend, and over the next busy weeks of the season, and in all the years ahead, we look forward to seeing you and serving you locally. It's what it's all about...
Please join us for cider & donuts this Small Business Saturday!
