Holiday Shopping in Downtown

Monday, November 20, 2017
Put the holiday back in your holiday shopping!
Now in its seventh year, Small Business Saturday (November 25) has been embraced as part of the holiday shopping tradition. Each year shoppers, businesses and public officials come together to Shop Small® and show their neighborhood pride. As a Neighborhood Champion, the PDP is giving shoppers a little extra incentive to visit all your favorite places and a great opportunity to win prizes! Here’s how it works:
  1. Collect your Small Business Saturday shopping passport at the PDP Info booth in Market Square, at the Peoples Gas Holiday Market on Small Business Saturday at 11:00 a.m. or at your favorite participating store.
  2. Get your passport stamped for each participating store you visit on Small Business Saturday.
  3. Once you have finished shopping for the day, return your stamped passport to the PDP info booth in Market Square (with at least two stamps!) by 5:00 p.m. for a chance to win fabulous raffle prizes from Downtown retailer’s worth up to a $500 dollar value!
