As you nurse your flesh wounds from Black Friday brawls, you may not want to stray too far from home. Thankfully, that’s the idea today.

Small Business Saturday encourages holiday shoppers to patronize brick and mortar businesses that are small and local. By supporting the businesses that in turn support our community day in/day out all year long, your dollar stays here in town—where it is typically reinvested back into the Hoboken economy.

Feel free to shop Hoboken to your heart’s content—it’s amazing how many great retailers and services  you can jam into a square mile.
