The Grapevine Discount Card was created in 2011 as a branch of the Grapevine Communities, a group of locally owned and operated web communities that believe in the "Shop Local, Buy Local" philosophy.
A simple internet search will show you thousands of pages citing the benefits of shopping locally and we want to bring those many benefits to every community in the United States!
Together we can all realize the local benefits, to the consumer and the businesses, of shopping and buying locally.
Offering consumers a discount has long been the standard of getting consumers to spend dollars with local merchants. Traditional advertising has always placed the burden, and high cost, of advertising on the shoulders of the local business owner. The Grapevine Discount Card was created due to the hard economic times that have caused the collapse of too many small businesses that just could no longer afford to advertise.
By allowing, and rewarding, the local consumers to help these small business owners absorb the cost of advertising, everyone in the community wins!
Easy to Use
Very affordable, and useful for the entire year. The Grapevine Discount Card is a great way to save money while helping to support your local business owners, non-profits, youth groups, churches and your community as a whole.
Simply purchase the Grapevine Discount Card from any number of local organizations or charities, or from any participating local merchant. Then visit GrapevineDiscounts.com to see which merchants in your area are participating and what discounts they are offering!
Pays for Itself
Just present your Grapevine Discount Card at participating merchants and your discount will automatically be deducted, subject to the merchant's terms. The card may be used an unlimited number of times during the year, and is non-transferable.
You’ll be surprised how quickly the card will pay for itself during the course of the year!
Helps your Community
When you purchase a Grapevine Discount Card from a local organization such as a Scout Troop, church or school group, you not only help them raise needed funds, you help them reach their civic goals. By using our card at your favorite local merchants, you are keeping funds in the local economy while helping local businesses stay vital.
GrapevineDiscount.com is growing nationally (officially launching in mid October 2011), so regardless of where you purchase your card you’ll be able to use it even while vacationing!
