It’s Time to Celebrate Pink Friday and Save in Shreveport

SHREVEPORT, LA – Are you starting to think about Christmas shopping? Or, are you one of those who is already ahead of the game and you’re already finished? If not, you might wanna know you can find some pretty good deals today.

It’s time to celebrate Pink Friday and in fact, Pink Weekend. Have you heard about this? If not, you should know this is a special event held to help support local businesses.

The Shreveport DDA is cheering on locals to shop with local businesses this weekend. It traditionally happens a week before the massive shopping event on black Friday.

The Shreveport DDA says the “goal is to encourage you to #ShopSmall first and have some fun doing it. Several of our retailers and restaurants will be putting on the pink with doorbuster specials and prizes, giveaways and specials, all geared to offering not only a fun shopping experience but capturing some dollars before Amazon and the big boxes have events on Black Friday, Cyber Monday and beyond."
