I don’t know about you all, but I LOVE the Small Business Saturday movement, which is coming to a local street near you next Saturday, November 30.
American Express cardholders will have the chance to register their cards starting TODAY — 11/24/13 — for a FREE $10 credit to be used at participating #ShopSmall retailers. There are LOTS of local spots that participate in this around Michigan 🙂 Check out the MAP here. {For me here in Howell, it is nearly all of our downtown businesses.}
A little snippet of the fine print:
Limit one (1) $10 statement credit per American Express Card. To be eligible, Card Members must register any eligible American Express Card for this offer at ShopSmall.com. Corporate Cards and all prepaid Card products (other than American Express Serve®) are not eligible. See all offer terms here.
YOU GUYS. This is FREE money! Plus, it’s just the perfect excuse to spend a day in your hometown checking out amazing small businesses. What’s also cool is that many restaurants participate as well. Holla for $10 off a meal after you shop!
My husband and I are both Amex cardholders {thanks, Costco!}, so I hope to get the credit on both of our cards. We did this last year and saw the credit show up on our next month’s statement. Easy peasy! I was super happy to have knocked out a few really cool gifts this way. {Last year the credit was $25, but we’ll take what we can get!}
Even if you are not an American Express cardholder, I urge you to shop local this holiday season. You all know I love saving money, but sometimes the feeling you get shopping small far outweighs the financial benefits.
Grab the credit while it’s available, have fun, and be sure to tweet with #ShopSmall!

This isn’t sponsored, I just love this promotion and wanted to be sure you all knew about it.
