Deals on Juice in the City

by nicolesnickels on September 2, 2010

Some of you may have noticed the Juice in the City widget in my left sidebar showing you awesome deals in the cities you live in so I wanted to make sure to introduce you all to the program!

Juice in the City is currently in a few cities but is rolling out to more and more cities every week.  The widget on my blog is  The geo-targeted which means it will show the closest deals to wherever you are located when you are reading my blog! The activities are geared towards moms and/or their kids and can include just about anything – the only criteria is that it is a good deal! Recent deals have included facials for 50% off – woo hoo!

It’s FREE (of course!) to sign up for Juice in the City to learn about the best deals in your area.  If it’s not in your area yet make sure to sign up to get advanced notice of when it will be in your area and be the first to cash in on the great deals they will bring you! They are coming to Miami-Fort Lauderdale soon and I can’t wait to start getting those emails!

If you’re in south Florida you definitely need to know about South Florida Dines. It is a fabulous site where you can buy gift certificates to restaurants at a discount. I have been blogging about them for several months and I know many of you took advantage of their special for Nicole’s Nickels readers – well, it’s back again this month!

Until August 31, 2010 you can get an additional 15% off their half-priced certificates by using code NN15 at check-out. This is a special for Nicole’s Nickels readers only.

What is South Florida Dines? It’s a FREE website to join where you buy reduced price (half-off) gift certificates to a LARGE variety of local South Florida restaurants. Unlike competitor sites, you’ll find A LOT of restaurants in your area and I find there to be fewer restrictions.

You can print certificates right from your computer. I recently got a $30 gift certificate to Wahoo’s on the Water in Stuart, FL for just $15.  I was able to take my parents and have a nice leisurely lunch on the water on a Saturday! It was super simple – I printed the gift certificate from home and presented it to the server when the bill came.  She took off the $30 and we had a great time.  On a separate note, not only is the view and ambiance awesome at Wahoo’s but the food is delicious! We all had fish in some form and were so happy with how everything tasted.  The service was excellent and we’ll definitely be going back again soon!

So take a look around South Florida Dines and see what restaurants they have near you. Make sure to read the listing for any restrictions and plan some reduced price meals at local restaurants!
