There's a new post on Mdhousing's blog, Governor O'Malley Urges Maryland Shoppers to Buy Local on Small Business Saturday and Throughout the Holidays.

 

Annapolis, MD - As Maryland shoppers get ready to pull out their wallets for the holiday season, Governor Martin O'Malley is encouraging them to spend their money at local small businesses.

 

"Successful small businesses are the foundation for growing a strong economy in Maryland," said Governor O'Malley. "We encourage all shoppers to 'Buy Local' on Small Business Saturday this Nov. 24 and throughout the year."

 

Sandwiched between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Small Business Saturday encourages holiday shoppers to patronize area brick and mortar businesses.  The day is an opportunity for "mom-and-pop shops" to showcase what they have to offer and how they can compete with big box and online shopping. For consumers, the day is also a chance to be more informed about what their community has to offer.

 

As part of Main Street Maryland's promotional efforts to encourage buying local, 170 shops and restaurants located in the state's 26 designated Main Street communities are offering special discounts and deals starting on Nov. 24.
