Shop Small Business Saturday, Nov. 27

Cynics disagree with the motive behind it, but at it's core it is a great concept.

This is pretty cool. Despite the cynicism behind who is presenting it (large credit card companies), the idea of it is very noble. As a small shop on an historic Main Street, we certainly fit into the "small business" category. We employ all local people, we invest the money back in the community, so this is something that I hope people respond to. I am not a "shop local" freak - but I do think that it is an important part of the economic mix. And what better way to overcome the cold with the thought that pitchers and catchers report in 78 days with a Sweets cap or sweatshirt? Good times...


Come say hello at the Sweets Shoppe - open Friday, Nov. 26 and Saturday, Nov. 27 (the "official" Shop Small Business Saturday)! See you then...and if you can't make it down, we can be your "mom and pop" shop online (still fulfilled right here in Walla Walla, WA) - here is the Sweets Shoppe link: http://www.wallawallasweets.com/shoppe/
