This holiday season, resolve to do the majority of your shopping local, and your holiday gifting will have a lasting impact. Come out to the Small Business Saturday Shop Hop event on November 30th to kick off your holiday shopping in downtown Port Washington!

Five reasons to shop our local downtown stores this Small Business Saturday:

  1. Unique gifts – You will find unique gifts, perfect for your family and friends, that are not found in every big box store or online retailer. This makes you a gifting master!
  2. Support mom and pop shops – Most of the stores in downtown Port Washington are owned by local families. This is their passion but also their livelihood! Support your community members to ensure they stay in business here for the long haul. Your dollars matter to them!
  3. Fewer cardboard boxes – Let’s be honest, no one can keep up with the cardboard box heap anymore. Save the environment — and your garage!
  4. Learn about our community – Shopping local is a great way to get to know your community and community members. Find a new spot you didn’t know existed. Meet the local owners. Run into your neighbors in a fun setting. Become an active member in your community.
  5. Get that new Port tote – Each year, businesses run a design contest for the front design of the coveted tote bag given out to Small Business Saturday shoppers at participating businesses. It’s become a big deal to snag these popular, custom-designed tote bags. So, shop early at your favorite stores — or this year, stop in at 1 pm for a second round of tote giveaways!
