From the Wiki folks:
Hats off to American Express for promoting and supporting small businesses via their Small Business Saturday campaign. Check out this nice ad from them:
And while it is commendable that American Express is doing this, I could make the case that supporting small businesses is something that we should be doing EVERY day. The theory goes that you don’t just love your Mom on Mother’s Day right? (Or you don’t just smoke pot on April 20th do you?) Likewise, every day should be a Shop Small Business day.
As for good commercials, check out how Bud Light has taken a big step in making their comeback with this clever commercial. (Stay to the end to catch the “You’re a ranch girl. You guys like blood or something?”)
Speaking of things Budweiser, I may have to initiate a Bud Friday at Buzzy’s on the day after Thanksgiving because yesterday I had Glenn Guy, Al Gough, Wayne Guy and Tom Russell drop in for a visit with Bob Wright and me. They stopped by en route to SALT for lunch. It is always great seeing my Leonardtown friends on one of their South County runs.
Funny rap tune here about shopping in the thrift store:
P.S. I still enjoy going back and re-listening to this NPR story on Glenn and the history of 10 ounce in St. Mary’s County. To check that out, click the following. https://www.npr.org/2006/04/11/5336207/where-the-10-ounce-bud-is-the-king-of-beers
