Buy Beaches First this Small Business Saturday
Buy Beaches First this Small Business Saturday
Small Business Saturday might look a little different this year. Although many people may not be flocking to local stores to stock up on holiday gifts, the Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber of Commerce is still encouraging locals and visitors to support small businesses and to Buy Beaches First.
Buy Beaches First is a shop local movement that works to connect community-minded shoppers to local businesses and have them share their experiences along the way by using #buybeachesfirst. As we enter the holiday season, Small Business Saturday on November 28th encourages you to support your favorite small businesses – both in-store and online – all season long.
Whether this means, eating a meal at a waterfront restaurant, stopping by a community market or finding a local gift shop online and making a purchase; You’ll know that you are doing your part to help support your neighbors, your community and your beaches! You can find a list of local beach businesses to visit by going to www.buybeachesfirst.com.
