From our friends at the Village Alliance: 

From the corner café that serves the perfect cup of coffee to the kitchen supply store that has the ideal knife set, our streets are brimming with special stores that are the heartbeat of our neighborhood. Small Business Saturday® is a day to support those local businesses we love. This year, the big day is November 30th, and we want you to get out and Shop Small.

For American Express Card Holders
You'll be happy to know you can register your American Express Card to get a one-time $10 statement credit for spending $10 or more in a single, in-store transaction on November 30th, at a qualifying small business. Supply is limited, so register your card when registration opens on Sunday, November 24th.

On Small Business Saturday and throughout the holiday season, take advantage of the 2013 Village Holiday Gift Guide, now available online and in print at the Village Alliance office, 8 East 8th Street.  With Hanukkah earlier than ever this year and Christmas just around the corner, we hope you will find inspiration for unique gifts this season from local merchants right here in the Village.
