Not to be outdone by Black Friday, merchants in the Fort Frances' downtown area are hosting sales of their own this weekend.
Chair of the Downtown Business Improvement Association Connie Cuthbertson says many stores are holding tax free sales and other special events.
"We've been working hard, actually of the businesses working together trying to come up with some ideas to showcase what they have to offer," says Cuthbertson.
Cuthbertson says many stores started their sales yesterday and will stay open late tonight.
