Austin Passbook

I love Instagram.  If I could play around on Instagram all day long, I would, but I have a day job.  Thanks to Instagram, however, I have discovered some wonderful Austin businesses that I may not have found otherwise.  One of those is Austin Passbook!  If you are a self proclaimed Austin foodie, like me, or you love great buy 1 get 1 deals, please check this out. 

Austin Passbook released their first book in the winter of 2014.  There will be a new book coming summer of 2015.  It looks just like a passport so it is extremely portable while you galavant throughout the city using some, or all, of these deals!  The book is divided into two sections:  Eat and Play.  The Eat section has buy 1 get 1 deals for local food establishments, mostly food trucks, such as Dock & Roll Diner, Hey Cupcake!, and Ms. P's Electric Cock.  The Play section had plenty of Austin's favorite activities like Austin Duck Adventures, Butler Park Pitch & Putt, Silver Whisk Cooking School (which is awesome by the way), and Bodhi Yoga.  I'm sure the summer 2015 edition will have even more wonderful spots to try out. 

The rules are pretty simple:  each deal can only be used once and you will get a stamp in your passbook, the full deal must be used at one visit (can't buy 1 now and save the other for later), and you must bring a friend to share the deal. 

Have I mentioned the price yet?  It was a mere $20.  This book pays for itself within one or two visits.  I highly recommened checking them out.  I will be getting the summer edition as soon as it is available!

As Austin Passbook would say:  "Be social.  Try something new.  Have fun."
