A la Card Chicago - Pre-order Discount

I wrote in a previous post about my love for the A la Card and the restaurants that you can expect to see on the docket for 2010.  If you are planning to purchase the 2010 deck of cards, you should get on the ball this weekend while they are offering a 20% discount to those who pre-order by Sunday.  Use promo code 2010 for 20% off the $30 deck today and tomorrow.

2010 A La Card Restaurants Announced!

If you are not familiar with the A La Card, you should take a moment to check out their website (www.alacardchicago.com). Each card in this 52 card deck features a $10 coupon to a different non-corporate, chef-owned restaurant in the city of Chicago.  The deck retails for $30 and is good for one year.  Last year, I saw the return on investment within the first couple of months - after just three uses, you have made your money back!  Also, $1 per deck is donated to Common Threads - a non-profit organization that educates children on the importance of nutrition and physical well-being.

See the website to pre-order your 2010 deck (or purchase the 2009 deck for only $10).  The full list of 2010 restaurants was just published and is listed to the left.
