Since it’s Small Business Saturday, I thought it was a great time to remind you to take a look on ETSY! Etsy is full of crafters and creative types (SO many very small businesses!) selling the amazing things they’ve designed.
Best of all, it’s Cyber Week (Black Friday + Cyber Monday + everything in between) and many Etsy shops are offering additional discounts to celebrate.
If you’re looking for something you can’t find in the store – a one-of-a-kind creation, whether it’s personalized or not, Etsy is the perfect place to start. It’s like shopping a creative marketplace from the comfort of your own home. And your sale will make both the shop owner and the recipient very happy!
Here are a few more favorite Michigan businesses you may want to support! There were so many great suggestions in the Bargains to Bounty Facebook Group that I couldn’t list them all – take a look here for more great ideas!
