Be In The Know: Find Sweet Deals Wherever You Are

Picture this: You’re about to head out for a quick bite to eat and you say to yourself, “I wonder if there’s anywhere good nearby that’s offering a deal?” In normal circumstances you may google or just window shop for promotions. But now you can access the best local deals with just a few keystrokes.
We love technology. For months we’ve been telling you about some of our favorite savings sites that allow you to save big with friends Or ways to save $1600 with simple substitutions .
But now you can nail down all kinds of deals through a new site called TheDealMap.com . This fabulous deal finder allows you to locate local deals by entering your zip code or postal code. Once you’ve given you location a Google map pops up with icons indicating different types of deals. You can search for “all deals” or just narrow it down to specific categories like restaurants, health & beauty, shopping or events & attractions.
In our experience the offers available include, buy-get -something free promotions on everything from shoes to pizza. Sandra found one of her favorite Mexican restaurants offered a 50% taco promotion, just blocks from her doorstep (mmmm…tacos). And similar to the increasingly popular discount site groupon.com we suspect Thedealmap.com is going to grow in popularity. And depending on what part of the country you live in, you may be surprised at the depth of offers that’s already in place in your area.
