Thanksgiving is a time of togetherness and travel, bringing people from here to there and back again to celebrate the harvest, share a meal and enjoy the company of loved ones. It also marks the official beginning of the holiday season, filled with parties, decorations and, yes, shopping.
Perhaps the biggest shopping day of the year comes on Black Friday, when businesses slash their prices to attract customers. In recent years, Cyber Monday has marked a new purchasing rush — one that takes place the Monday after Thanksgiving, when online retailers offer their own set of sales. And 2010 saw the inauguration of yet another shopping day: Small Business Saturday, which encourages shoppers to visit locally owned business in lieu of big box retailers.
If you’re in Woodbridge this Saturday, take advantage of Small Business Saturday by heading over to the Holiday Stroll on Main Street from 4 to 6:30pm, an event filled with family-friendly entertainment from horse-drawn carriage rides to holiday caroling. It’s a great opportunity to check out local merchants’ holiday window decorations and get a jump on your holiday shopping while supporting local businesses.
