MANAYUNK

Here are some tips and tricks to help you get the most out of Small Business Saturday:

1. Embrace the experience

While Small Business Saturday may just seem like a day to go crazy and spend your money, it is about more than just sales. While some businesses offer discounts, others offer a well-rounded shopping experience. Whether it is cookies or gifts, businesses focus on creating a welcoming environment to promote spending. I mean, who could turn down a free cup of hot chocolate after walking along frigid main street

2.Focus on quality

When shopping for your friends, the last thing you want to do is give them something that crumples after one use. Unlike the brief satisfaction that comes with fast fashion trends, small businesses sell products that last a lifetime. Manayunk businesses’ high quality products make spending your well earned money worthwhile.

3. Shop early

With the spooky season coming to an end and winter right around the corner, it’s never too early to start shopping!. Compile your friends and family’s wish list now so that you have the time to get them their dream gift. With the current supply chain issues, now is not the time to wait to snatch what’s on the shelves. By shopping early, you’ll be able to relax knowing that you saved yourself the hassle of last minute purchases.

4. Don’t be afraid to ASK!

Small business owners focus on supporting their customers just as much as they support them. In a tight knit community success is desired for all, not just the business, that is why many small businesses are open to discussion. Multiple Manayunk businesses offer custom pieces or services, so owners are open to discussing how to provide you with customization at your availability. Whether it is a payment extension or a discount, small business owners are willing to listen to their customers’ needs.

While these are just a few tips to help you make the most out of Small Business Saturday, there are still a multitude of things to do. Depending on your personal shopping style, you can utilize what is offered to your benefit. Small Business Saturday is not just about appreciating your local businesses, but also about them appreciating you.
