Small Business Saturday 2016 - Open Thread


It's become an annual tradition for me to take some time away from the Black Friday and Cyber Monday Madness to help promote Small Business Saturday here on my blog. And that's exactly what I'm doing again this year with this post.

Today, 11/26, is Small Business Saturday. If you have a small business or you want to help promote a small business (of ANY kind; not just beauty-related), please leave your business info (URL, any sales you may have going right now, etc.) in the comments below. 

Please note that I will not moderate comments on this post as long as you're promoting a small business (NOT owned by a larger company/corporation) and the goods and/or services provided by the small business are legal and G-rated. Those are the only two limitations.

So please feel free to post in the comments and if you're not promoting a small business, I hope you will take a moment to read through these comments and help support any small businesses that you feel may be a good fit for you! 

PS: and just because I have to say this, please be aware that Nouveau Cheap does not endorse or promote any of the businesses featured in the comments below. As with anything you purchase, please do your research and speak to the business owner (that's the beauty of small businesses--you can speak directly to the business owners!) with any questions you may have before making a purchase.

  7. Misfit Eclectic! I have no affiliation with them at all, found them in a beauty group on fb, but their handmade candles and wax tarts and beauty products, from scrubs to creams to sprays and lip balms, come in more flavors and scents than you can imagine! Super reasonable prices and they always have a monthly special, my skin loves the "fluff" and one of their candles is always burning at my house!

  8. G, I gotta say thank you for all the money you have saved me! I have been reading your blog for about a year and not only is it informative, but it's entertaining as well, so keep it up! Love it! :) My shout out is to a local beauty boutique in Long Beach, CA called 2nd Street Beauty. When I'm not taking advantage of G's steals, I am taking advantage of this place and their great and wide range selection, wonderful people, sales and awesome stamp points club. I think what I love most about popping in here is I never know what I might see! So ck out their website or one of their 3(?) boutiques. Support Small Business Yay!
