Don't wait in line, go online for Black Friday deals at The Cellar & The Stained Glass

Black Friday has never been so bright since savvy Evanstonians can avoid the hassle of waiting in long lines by ordering wallet-sized plastic gift cards for The Stained Glass Wine Bar & Bistro at thestainedglass.com and The Cellar at thecellarevanston.com.

Bound to please anyone's taste, these pre-paid cards come in any amount and are presented in a decorative 6" x 4" stationary card, ideal for the holidays. 

Best of all, from Black Friday (Nov. 29, 2013) to Cyber Monday (Dec. 2, 2013), The Stained Glass will add a $20 gift certificate for every $200 spent on gift cards while The Cellar will add a $10 gift certificate for every $100 spent on gift cards.
