Holiday Kickoff Weekend Called ‘Amazing’ For Berlin

BERLIN – “Amazing.”

That’s how Connie Mayers, owner of Main Street Sweets, describes the first official weekend of holiday shopping in Berlin. And she’s not the only one.

Merchants throughout the town had nothing but good things to say following Black Friday and Small Business Saturday in “America’s Coolest Small Town.”

“It was packed,” said Debbie Frene, owner of Victorian Charm. “Berlin was overflowing.”

Shop owners in Berlin said they stayed busy from the time they opened Friday through the weekend. Holiday Arts Night on Friday evening, which included the town’s Christmas tree lighting ceremony, kept some stores open as late as 10 p.m.

Free parking goes a long way to fill a downtown with stores and shoppers!

Hey, Jimbo, How was Black Friday down on the Salisbury Plaza?

Really? Nobody there, huh? I wonder why?
