Small Business Saturday 2012: What Deals Will Your Store in Mineola Have?

Are you a Mineola business that's participating in Small Business Saturday on Nov. 24? Tell us what sales and specials you're planning for the holiday shopping day.

Across the country, Small Business Saturday has become a day during holiday shopping season that puts the spotlight on locally owned businesses, either through big sales, special events or simple encouragements to support the independently run stores in your neighborhood.

  • Do you own a shop or boutique that will have discounts for that day?
  • Are you a manager at a restaurant that will have special deals for shoppers?
  • Or are you just an avid shopper who has a finely attuned sixth sense that allows you to know when and where all the sales are?

If you answered yes to any of those questions, we want you to spill what you know about shopping for Small Business Saturday bargains. Tell us what special sales and events your business has on tap for Saturday, Nov. 24. And yes, include anything else you might be doing on Thanksgiving, Black Friday and the entire holiday weekend.

Funny how neither comment addressed John's point. A good one BTW...

Vincent - I don't care what the cost per child is. The actual costs are for teacher andRead More administrator salaries, benefits, pensions etc. Patti - many of the parents and children are living in apartments and houses, some legally and some not, but definitely not in houses that they own. SLJ - Thank you!

Ms. Purdy: This is also a act that Mr. Herling should be refering to. An article in the WillistonRead More Times dated Friday May 24, 2013 states: "The Herricks Board of Education is hopeful that a bill drafted by state Sen. Jack Martins(R-Min) to financially penalize landlords who create illegal apartments will stop the practice in the Hericks school district. The bill in it's current form would empower the school district or a municipality in a school district to bring legal action against a landlord who creates an "unapproved conversion" of a single family or two family house to recoup the expense of educating children in those living situations in district shools." And if you don't think the same is happening in the Mineola School District I don't know what to say other than it's your tax money.
