AskCity and Entertainment Publishing : A Real Two-for-One Deal

If you've read any of our previous posts about AskCity, you know it's the kind of local search that's sure to save you time. Now, it can even save you money.

How? Enter IAC sister company Entertainment Publications, Inc. You might know them as the company who puts out the annual Entertainment coupon books. (My personal favorite: the discounted movie ticket coupons).

We've partnered with them to provide their coupons with our AskCity search results. Their coupon books are targeted to each city, which made them an ideal match with us. See a coupon you want? A free 14-day no-obligation trial gets you the coupon PLUS access to their whole coupon database: dining, shopping, mani-pedis...the whole local magilla.

For example:

Midas, Los Angeles
Omni Berkshire Place Hotel, New York
Flavor of India, Seattle
KB Toys, San Francisco

So the next time you do an AskCity search, keep an eye out for the Entertainment coupons--where, and when, you can really use them.
