Local Small Biz Sales This Weekend

Forget the chain stores this weekend, and put your money back into your neighborhood.

If you’re at home reading this, chances are you’ve forgone the that involve camping out in front of a store for 10 hours (or maybe you just survived fighting over the last iPad at the store). If you still like getting a good deal, but prefer keeping your sanity in tact, here are some local small businesses that are having great sales this weekend:

- Designer boutique Stuart and Wright, in Fort Greene, is offering 15 percent in store and online this weekend (code: blackweekend), plus free shipping. On Saturday, their special hours are noon to 9 p.m., and they will also offer free gift wrapping 

- Hip girls boutique Thistle and Clover, in Fort Greene, will take 30% off labels like Trovata, Dace and Ace & Jig. On Saturday, the shop will offer an extra 10% off all sale items as part of Small Business Saturday.
