(AP)  SMALL BUSINESSES ACROSS THE COUNTRY ARE READY FOR “SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY,” A DAY FOR PEOPLE TO BUY HOLIDAY GIFTS AT LOCAL SHOPS AND BUSINESSES.

SHOP SMALL IS SANDWICHED BETWEEN BLACK FRIDAY, A DAY-LONG FRENZY AT THE LARGE CHAIN STORES, AND CYBER MONDAY, WHEN INTERNET RETAILERS HAVE SPECIAL OFFERS TO ENTICE PEOPLE TO SPEND ONLINE.

JULEE EVANS, THE OWNER OF A CHILDREN’S BOUTIQUE IN RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SAYS SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY GIVES HER A CHANCE TO SHOW HER APPRECIATION TO HER CUSTOMERS FOR KEEPING HER IN BUSINESS EVEN THOUGH THEY COULD VERY EASILY GO TO THE CHAINS AND THE BIG BOX STORES.
