Small Business Saturday Round Two!
It's Small Business Saturday - AGAIN!
In all seriousness, we were pretty disappointed with the weather wrecking our vibe last weekend, so we're going to give it another shot...
One of our favorite days of the year is Small Business Saturday, where we get the privilege of helping so many of you get your holiday shopping started with snacks and gift recommendations -- And we totally missed out this year!
Of course, that's just how the seasons go here in Indiana, so we pivot and make adjustments. Now, we'd like to invite you out THIS Saturday to grab your treats and get some gift recommendations from the Alley Kat's staff!
Seriously though, please come by and help us eat all these treats we had ready for last weekend...
If you came out last weekend, thank you SO MUCH for your support even in the snowy weather -- And if not, we can't wait to see you THIS weekend!
As always, THANK YOU FOR SHOPPING LOCAL!
Small Business Weekend
Shop over 40 local businesses under one roof this holiday season!
