Don't forget about your Moose incentives from Moose International. Last year (in the summer) I got a discount round of golf at Pets by using the golf app in the benefits flier. Another great app is the workingadvantage.com, I got a $15 dollar certificate for $6 for Stella's Casa Capri here on the north side of Kenosha. Just get on the site and find restaurants.com to get that discounted certificate. Many other Kenosha area eateries are on there as well. Check it out! Fraternally Yours, Rich Smart, Administrator
