Patch Deals: Your Passport to Local Savings

Call it the perfect storm of commerce: You need something, you want to buy local and you need to save money. Patch Deals is the place to help you do all three — while also giving local business owners the chance to keep offering you a variety of products, services and experiences.

Patch Deals is the truly hyperlocal tool that allows you to save up to 90 percent on local products and services from some of the best businesses in the area. Unlike some other coupon services, these are the businesses you patronize. No sandwich deals in Trenton or tire rotation in Mahway. These are the Essex County businesses that you patronize, so come and find your deals.

Today, for example, $30 for 4 Martial Arts Classes in Maplewood. Take advantage of it now! Our first Patch deal was Indoor Cycling Classes at located at 61A East Mt. Pleasant Ave., Livingston.

It never hurts to be ahead of the game, so you can sign up for Patch Deal alerts. Simply go to your profile, find the "Notifications Settings" on the left rail; once you click on "Patch Deals," all the discounts will be sent to your inbox. Or, just sign up for the daily newsletter to view the deals.

As always, friend us on Facebook, follow us on Twitter or simply come back to the site for more new initiatives as we make Patch work for you! Business owners interested in trying a Daily Deal should call Regional Publisher Josef Ornegri at (973) 885-2523 or email joe@patch.com and Livingston's advertising rep Rebecca Hughes @ rebecca@patch.com.
