Small Business Saturday: November 24
Skip the Black Friday crowds and crush, rest your turkey-filled tummies and save your shopping for Small Business Saturday on The Loop this year! Support the amazing small businesses along Delmar and you’ll receive poker chips with your purchases that can be redeemed for a FREE Tito’s cocktail at the best restaurant in St. Louis – The Moonrise’s Eclipse! Poker chips are valid only on Small Business Saturday, so plan to make a festive day of it and wrap your shopping up with an out-of-this-world drink beneath the moon.
