Small Business Saturday is coming up on Nov. 25. What started as an American Express campaign in 2010 to inspire consumers to shop locally has become an annual holiday that’s celebrated nationally.

We asked you to tell us which local small businesses you love shopping with + any deals you’re excited for, and (as usual) you didn’t disappoint. Plus, we included some of the local deals and shops we love.
  • City Editor Mitch | Spoonful Records | You can always use a new record in the collection. Browse through a variety of used records discounted to $20, or enjoy a $10 discount on turntables.
  • City Editor Hanna | Kenneth’s Hair Salon and Day Spas | This is my go-to hair salon in CBUS, with nine locations across the city. Enjoy 10% off of one product, 15% off of two products, and 20% off of three or more products.
  • You all love shopping small. Check out where else you said you’ll be shopping on Nov. 25.

Local Favorites

  • Simple Times Mixers | Mixologists rejoice at this brand’s collection of preservative and concentrate-free cocktail mixers.
  • CBUStoday | Okay, we had to toot our own horn a little. If you know someone who is constantly forwarding our newsletter to share an event or piece of Columbus history, spread the CBUS love with these gifts.
