Santa Cruz Patch Pays Your Parking on Black Friday
Black Friday is too often associated with a four-letter word....mall. Patch wants to help you shop downtown without having to worry about a free place to park.
On the day after Thanksgiving Santa Cruz Patch will cover the parking meters along Pacific Avenue in Santa Cruz and let shoppers park for free.
No, you aren't being Punk'd – the city council even approved it Tuesday.
Patch will pay for all the meters along Pacific Avenue from 9 a.m. until 8 p.m. They will be covered with bags so people can use them for two hours to shop till they drop.

Patch people will also be out there handing out T-shirts, water bottles, sunglasses, pens, magnets and stickers with the green logo.
The day will also start a contest among downtown businesses for the most colorful holiday decorations. More on that soon.
