For example, my local coffee shop offers a coffee club where I get one free coffee for every eight that I buy. This actually brings down the cost of my daily coffee 25 cents! Same for my lunch place that has a 'salad club'. <br> <br>And being loyal to local businesses is key. I have found that the more I frequent a place and get to know the proprietors, the more freebies I get anyway. This is especially true for independently owned restaurants and cafes.Lynn RawdenThu, 06 Nov 2008 16:59:36 -0000http://blog.justthrive.com/2008/10/you-are-what-you-eatcheap/#comment-6380151Why wouldn't free slurpee day at 7-11 be July 11th? June 11th doesn't make any sense. Is that a convenience store joke? I don't get it! lolMary@SimplyFortiesTue, 04 Nov 2008 00:55:38 -0000
