The Majestic Grille’s gift card sale starts tomorrow at 9 AM.\u00a0 You can buy $50 gift cards for $25, good for food purchases.\u00a0 This is a great deal!\u00a0 Don’t miss it!<\/p>\n
Circa is getting in on the gift card action too – they’ll be selling gift cards at $100 face value for only $50 on Sunday and Monday, December 7 and 8.<\/p>\n
In both cases, the cards can’t be redeemed until after the first of 2009, and can’t be used to buy alcohol.\u00a0 Still, these are both great deals at the two restaurants I recommend most Downtown.<\/p>\n
