(And Buy Nothing Day Friday)
Small Business Saturday. Not sure why AmExp is involved and all the links go to Facebook (I’ll be rebooting right after I post this), just fyi.
Here’s my list in no particular order of favorite small businesses to buy from:
Better World Books
books and they support literacy organizations
Escential Lotions & Oils
the best essential oils and perfumes ever and they’ll custom blend if you call and ask nicely
Oxyfresh
toothpaste
Writers’ Bloc
swanky office supplies
Microcosm
zines and calendars
Wendy’s Orgami
unbearably cute and useful stuff
Nutrition 4 Less
vitamins
Collectors’ Paradise (Pasadena store)
comics
Dreamhost
web hosting me for 10 years
Earl Reid Jewlery
hair combs
Fine Time
cool affordable watches
OK Mike
marvelous schmattas
Oh, there are more, I just can’t think of them right now.
