Support Evanston businesses on Saturday, November 27! When you shop and dine in Evanston, you automatically support the Evanston community.

Downtown Evanston
Many Downtown Evanston restaurants will have special brunch and lunch offerings to help you fuel up for a fun day of shopping in downtown Evanston.

When you spend at local businesses you get something in return! Pick up a Shopping Passport at any participating business and collect stamps or signatures when you shop. When you spend $100 you'll receive a holiday gift from Downtown Evanston. More information. 

Main-Dempster Mile
Spend $100 on the Mile on Small Business Saturday and redeem your receipts for a gift bag . The first 10 bags are guaranteed to have a gift card to an MDM business worth between $10.

Drive through and drop off for charity between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. at Train Station Alley, 600 Main St. Unload your car for charity before you load it back up with gifts! Drop off hats, scarves, socks, hygiene items, toys and blankets for local service providers like the Hemenway Soup Kitchen or Project Linus and get a free hot chocolate and picture with Santa or Bubbe!
