After shopping the big box store craziness of Black Friday, Leesburg retailers are hoping people find relief on Small Business Saturday at local shops in historic downtown Leesburg.
“Small Business Saturday is a wonderful idea,” said Jack Azar, owner of Manhattan Pizza and Luv n'berry.
“There are so many locally owned businesses and we often get lost among the big businesses running their promotions this time of year," Azar added.

Azar said in the past they do notice a boost in business on Small Business Saturday and he hopes people will stop by one of their four locations for lunch or dinner.
