Small Business Saturday
The City of New York has partnered with American Express to start "Small Business Saturday". Everyone knows thanksgiving weekend has "Black Friday" and "Cyber Monday", so American Express is going to help smaller shops, stores and restaurants attract customers on a day of their own.
Smaller shops cannot offer the huge discounts seen on Black Friday, but they can offer their own types of incentives, and American Express is pledging to provide $100 in Facebook advertising to 10,000 small business owners.

The MEatpacking District on FNO
The Meatpacking District proved yet again to be the neighborhood to be in on Fashion's Night Out. Over 40 stores held events and there were huge outdoor events sponsored by Maybelline, America Express, the Gilt Groupe, Arizona Iced Tea, and more. Between all the great musical performances in the neighborhood (Robin Thicke, the BLK JKS, Kelly Rowland) and complimentary cocktails supplied by Moet Hennessy, the night was a hit. Can't wait till next year.
Check out the amazing press the Meatpacking District got in the NY Times here.
