Support small businesses on Amazon this Black Friday

Amazon Is Hiring 75,000 More Workers

Black Friday may seem like mass consumerism gone amuck to many, but there’s a way you can get major deals on items you want or need while still backing local retailers.

On the day after Thanksgiving, Amazon will be a hub not only for deals on electronics, beauty and toys but for holiday deals from small businesses.

Customers can save on thousands of Small Business Holiday Deals through Nov. 30, the online retail giant announced.

“Amazon continues to support small business selling partners this holiday season; in addition to shopping top deals from small businesses, customers can easily support small businesses through recently launched collections at amazon.com/supportsmall,” the company said in a press release.

Here are a few deals Amazon is offering to support small businesses around the nation this season.
