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.
- Daniel M. Soref Planetarium – Buy one admission, get one free.
- Discovery World – Buy one admission, get one free.
