Small Business Saturday
MainStreet Truth or Consequences and the Chamber of Commerce are collaborating together on Small Business Saturday, taking place on November 30, 2024.
Shop local
On Saturday, November 30, we encourage you to get a start on your holiday shopping in small, locally-owned businesses. Before you put that amazon order though, take a stroll through the Downtown area and see what treats and treasures you can find first.
During the holiday shopping season, it’s more important than ever to keep dollars in the local economy. When money is spent at locally-owned businesses, that money continues to circulate in the community. We have fantastic stores and businesses with wonderful items including unique art, clothing, food, and spa treatments. Let's show some love to our local businesses!
​
As an incentive to shop local, on Small Business Saturday if you spend $20 at a participating location, you can enter to win a gift certificate from a local business!
