Black Friday & Small Business Saturday round up

For businesses in downtown, Black Friday and Small Business Saturday kick off a holiday season of support. It is about more than just one day of shopping or a single purchase .. especially this season.

Throughout our community, retails stores, restaurants and service providers are entering a second prolonged period of student absences, still missing game day crowds as basketball is tipped off and looking for ways to continue to be safe with cooler temps limiting outdoor service enjoyment as the state begins to re-tighten restrictions on indoor operations.

Enjoy this Friday Carolina football game day at your favorite place, stroll to shop and grab gift cards for future grab & go meals with friends or drinks to take home, too. This weekend, these are some of the specials you will find at shops along Franklin Street.
