I have participated in Small Business Saturday since I learned of it 3 years ago. I am offering up the same deal I have offered for the past 2 years. I am DOUBLING ALL ORDERS placed through my online store on Saturday November 30th, 2013.
Just place your order as you normally would… and I will ship 2 of everything you order… at no additional charge. Limit 2 each per item or sku, please. (You are trying to help me, not put me out of business.)
