Special Offers Around Milwaukee on Foursquare
Foursquare, a rapidly growing social networking site, is also a way to find special offers at businesses around the Milwaukee area. We’ve been keeping our eye out for special offers and have found a few detailed below. If you know of any others, please leave a comment. A more detailed explanation of what Foursquare is and how it works can be found below.
Milwaukee Public Museum – Unlimited free general admission for the Mayor and a guest, and 20% off originally priced items in the gift shop.
Bacchus - Free Spinach Risotto Fritter Appetizer on your third Check-in.
Ferch’s Malt Shoppe – Free Burger or Frozen Marble Top Cone for the Mayor upon their 10th Check-in.
Wine Cellar of Wisconsin – Leave a Tip on Foursquare and receive a free 6-bottle wine tote.

What is Foursquare?
Foursquare states they are a “cross between a friend-finder, a social city-guide and a game that rewards you for doing interesting things. We aim to build things to not only help you keep up with the places your friends go, but that encourage you to discover new places and challenge you to explore your neighborhood in new ways.”
How does Foursquare work?
Users “Check-in” at a location by using their smartphone or sending a text from their cell phone. After checking in, Foursquare awards points and occasional “Badges” to users. If a user has checked-in to a location more than anyone else, they will become Mayor of that location. Users can also share “Tips” with other users, and create “To-Dos” as suggestions for yourself.

Bristol Renaissance Faire Admission Coupon
The popular Bristol Renaissance Faire, located in Kenosha off I94 at the Wisconsin/Illinois border, is currently running on Saturdays and Sundays through Labor Day. The Faire recreates an English village festival in the 16th century. We’ve had a number of inquiries for discount tickets to the Bristol Renaissance Faire, so we did a little research and found a coupon for $2.50 off a full priced adult ticket on couponclipper.com.
Gate ticket prices are $18.95 for adults and $9.50 for a child. Children under 5 are always free. Advance tickets can also be purchased from the Bristol Renaissance Faire website or at participating Walgreens locations. By purchasing advance tickets online you’ll save $1 per ticket off the gate ticket price.
The last day of the 2010 Bristol Renaissance Faire is on Labor Day, September 6, 2010.
If you plan to visit the Faire next year, you may want to watch for an opportunity to buy advance tickets at a discount during the winter. (An easy way to stay on top of any Faire deals is to subscribe to our email list.) Although there isn’t any guarantee the Faire will run a similar promotion in 2011, last February the Faire ran a Valentines Day promotion where two advance tickets could be purchased for $25.
2011 Entertainment Book Available Now!
The 2011 Entertainment Book has just been released! The Entertainment Book is one of the most popular coupon books in the Milwaukee area. This year’s book features 514 restaurant coupons, 175 discounts to attractions, 178 shopping coupons, travel deals, movie ticket discounts, and more. Most of the coupons are good for the next 15 months.
The cost of the book at this time is $40 plus free shipping. Looking back at the last few years, the price of the book has dropped gradually over the twelve months that the book is for sale. For example, Entertainment held a sale last December with books priced at $19.99 with free shipping. Of course, there is no guarantee the same type of sale will occur again in December 2010. Depending on your usage of the book, it may be to your advantage to buy a copy now, and restock if there is another sale in December this year.
Here’s just a small sample of the coupons featured in this year’s Entertainment Book:
- Betty Brinn Children’s Museum – Buy one admission, get one free.
