Patch Pays for Parking on Small Business Saturday

Today is Small Business Saturday, so we hope you'll consider hopping on the bus or in your car and heading out to support local businesses in Redwood City and along the Peninsula today, be it shopping for the holidays or stocking up on essentials.

As part of a new partnership with American Express in honor of Small Business Saturday, Patch will be holding its first Park on Patch event on the Peninsula today (Saturday, Nov. 24) in downtown Burlingame.

We want you to have one day when parking is a pleasure - no rooting around for coins in the bottom of your purse or pocket, no running outside frantically, mid-conversation, to feed the meter.

Patch has paid for dozens of parking meters downtown on Burlingame Avenue - from El Camino Real to California Drive - from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, November 24. Some meters will also be paid for on Park Road.

The two-hour time limit still applies to these metered spots.

Be on the look-out for RedwoodCity-Woodside Patch editor Jennifer van der Kleut and San Mateo/Foster City Patch editor Laura Dudnick, who will be hanging out on the Avenue talking more about Patch and giving away sweet Patch swag like tote bags, water bottles, stickers, pens, tattoos and more!

You'll be seeing more Park on Patch events coming to other Peninsula cities soon.

So spread the word to your friends and family, and we'll see you Saturday.
