Go havesome fun.

It’s good for the neighborhood.

Hank — a friendly older neighbour in a goldenrod ball cap with a green H, glasses and a moustache, wearing a green jacket.

Open the app, show your phone. That’s the whole trick.

Hank makes you happy.

Participating categories include coffee, bowling, breweries, golf, climbing, barbers, axe throwing, trampoline parks, restaurants, florists, mini golf and dry cleaning.

Three steps and you’re out the door.

I’ve had it explained to me in fewer, but not by much.

  1. 1

    Get the app.

    Fifty a year, or five a month. Free to look around.

  2. 2

    Pick your cause.

    One tap at checkout, from the local groups on the list. Then you’re done thinking about it.

  3. 3

    Go out. Often.

    Open the app, show your phone. Use it again next time — most spots reset monthly.

Where to go this week.

Independent places, no chains. Each one writes its own offer and decides how often you can use it — so no two read alike, and that’s the fun of it.

Coffee shop

Second drink on us.

Every visit

Look through the whole map for free. You only pay when you want to use one.

If you run a place in town

It costs a business nothing.

No fee to join, nothing when somebody redeems. You write the offer, you set the days it’s good, you set how often one person can use it. Run your own promotions on top whenever you want. You’re not buying an ad — you’re buying a regular.

The members pay for the app. You pay for nothing. That’s the catch, as far as I can tell.

of every fifty, to a local group you pick.

And you pick where the money goes.

Not us. Not a board. You, at checkout, from the local groups on the list — and again every year you renew. Monthly works the same way. That’s the last I’ll say about it; the rule is printed at the bottom of the page.

Backed by the chamber.

Local chambers of commerce back the program. I’m not going to hang their logos up here like trophies. Ask them.

If you run a local nonprofit.

Members pick you. Not us. Every membership that names you sends its share, and again every year it renews.

The rule is printed at the bottom of this page, word for word, so nobody has to take my word for it.

Get happy.

Go have some fun. It’s good for the neighborhood.
