Wedged between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, it would initially appear that November 24th’s Small Business Saturday only has a snowball’s chance of striking it big in sales. And while you might not find $180 40″ LCD TV’s that Best Buy is offering at the stroke of midnight on Black Friday at your local electronics store, shopping small is still shopping big.
