Small Business Saturday 2015 in Astoria

YOU GUYS, it’s that time of year again…Small Business Saturday is back once more, ushering in the official local start to the holiday buying season.

Most of you know that in addition to my duties here at the We Heart Network, I’m also the proud owner of Lockwood and Lockwood Style. Shopping small is near and dear to my heart, so it should come as no surprise that I’m a BIG fan of Small Business Saturday. (Not sure what that is, here’s a great intro.)

This year SBS is Saturday, November 28th, and we encourage you to get out there and spend some of your holiday dollars at these local favorites. In fact, we’re sponsoring the First Annual Astoria Retail Crawl, featuring 11 local shops and one AWESOME prize. To find out more, visit the event page, or check out the Instagram accounts of the participating shops (links below).
