Businesses Gear up for Black Friday and Small Business Saturday

With the pandemic causing several storefronts to close nationwide, it’s more important than ever to shop local and support small businesses. Several Winthrop businesses will be making it easy to shop and score deals this weekend, as they open their doors on Black Friday and Small Business Saturday.

Robin’s nest, located at 79 Jefferson Street in Town Center, will be having a storewide 20% off sale until November 29^th, to give people more days to shop local.

“With Covid capacity restrictions, we do not want people to have to worry about crowds during a one or two day sale,” said store owner, Robin Gerolamo. “We will also be doing some extras on Nov. 27 – 28 like door prizes and giveaways.”

Gerolamo said that the store is stocked with gifts galore including jewelry, decor, apparel & accessories, baby gifts, wedding gifts, custom Winthrop items, and more. Gifts can also be purchased on the recently added online store at https://www.robinsnestwinthrop.com/

“We are incredibly grateful for the support and loyalty of our customers and we look forward to sharing a ’special’ holiday season with them.”

Across the street from Robin’s Nest, the Winthrop Pro Shop will be offering a 10% discount on all adult and children’s Winthrop jackets on both Friday and Saturday.

For those who need to shop for their furry family members, Sandy Paw will be offering 10% off all retail, including food, treats, toys and supplies. When you spend more than $10, you’ll be gifted a free goodie bag of treats, while supplies last.

On Black Friday, the Winthrop Book Depot will be giving away a free hot or iced coffee with the purchase of any Melissa & Doug product. For those wishing to stock up on wine for the holiday, Swett’s Liquor will be offering 10% off cases of wine.
