Small Business Saturday expected to have more shoppers than Black Friday

CHARLOTTE — It is Small Business Saturday and a new report predicts the turnout will be huge.

Bankrate estimates that 60% of shoppers will choose to spend money at a small business on Saturday for holiday shopping.

That is slightly higher than the 56% of shoppers estimated to have participated in Black Friday spending.

Bankrate said most shoppers that will buy locally on Saturday will be younger.

Nearly three-quarters of millennials are planning to support small businesses.
