			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Howdy Chicago! We&#8217;re looking forward to seeing everyone again this summer during Street Festival Season in the Windy City.  Wanted to take a quick minute and tell you about some recent changes with our Venue Partners:</p>
<p>Small Bar has sold it&#8217;s ownership of their <a href="http://chicagoist.com/2012/04/30/the_beer_bistro_to_buy_small_bar_fu.php" title="Beer Bistro" target="_blank">Fullerton location</a> and it&#8217;s morphed into Beer Bistro North, an expansion of The Beer Bistro&#8217;s flagship location in the West Loop. The Owners of Small Bar Fullerton will be focusing soley on their operation on Division Street and you can bring your Drink Deck card from Small Bar Fullerton into the Division Street location.</p>
<div id="attachment_3851" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 220px"><a href="http://chicagoist.com/2012/04/30/the_beer_bistro_to_buy_small_bar_fu.php"><img src="http://thedrinkdeck.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/SmallBarFullerton-210x300.jpg" alt="" title="SmallBarFullerton" width="210" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-3851" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Redeem This Card at Small Bar Division Street</p></div>
<p>Andersonville&#8217;s In Fine Spirits has <a href="http://chicago.eater.com/archives/2012/03/06/in-fine-spirits-to-close-and-become-premise-this-april.php" title="Ala Card Chicago" target="_blank">revamped their concept</a> and is now know as <a href="http://www.premisechicago.com/" title="Premise Chicago" target="_blank">Premise</a>. The wine and spirits store by the same name (In Fine Spirits) will remain. We&#8217;ve connected with Management and Ownership at Premise and they&#8217;ve agreed to continue honoring the In Fine Spirits card for 25% off.  </p>
<div id="attachment_3852" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 220px"><a href="http://chicago.eater.com/archives/2012/03/06/in-fine-spirits-to-close-and-become-premise-this-april.php"><img src="http://thedrinkdeck.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/InFineSpirits-210x300.jpg" alt="" title="InFineSpirits" width="210" height="300" class="size-medium wp-image-3852" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Your In Fine Spirits card is still valid at Premise</p></div>
<p>For those with a &#8220;vintage&#8221; copy of Drink Deck Chicago&#8217;s first or second print run please be advised that Riverview Tavern (which we no longer represent) has changed hands and will no longer honor the Drink Deck card with their name on it. If you are looking for a Drink Deck venue in Roscoe Village go to <a href="http://thedrinkdeck.com/category/chicago-bars/" title="alacard chicago" target="_blank">Volo Wine Bar</a> or <a href="http://thedrinkdeck.com/category/chicago-bars/" title="alacard chicago" target="_blank">Village Tap</a>, both are Drink Deck friendly. </p>
<p><a href="http://thedrinkdeck.com/blog/recent-shake-ups-changes/attachment/riverview-2/" rel="attachment wp-att-3853"><img src="http://thedrinkdeck.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Riverview-214x300.jpg" alt="" title="Riverview" width="214" height="300" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3853" /></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>With our expansion across the pond we wanted to share a little more about our concept for future &#8220;Drink Deckers&#8221; in the UK. Our mission at Drink Deck is to provide locals and visitors with a fun way to explore a city&#8217;s neighborhoods by presenting a curated list of 52 special offers at excellent food, drink &amp; entertainment venues. From the well established to what&#8217;s fresh on the scene Drink Deck represents a wide variety of venues to suit any mood. Shuffle through our <a title="London Bars" href="http://thedrinkdeck.com/category/london-bars/" target="_blank">deck of playing cards</a> to plan a day or night on the town, or <a title="Londons Best Bars" href="http://thedrinkdeck.com/blog/london-blog/londons-smart-phone-apps/" target="_blank">download the app</a> to your phone and use our location based map to plot your course!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://thedrinkdeck.com/category/london-bars/" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-3623 aligncenter" title="London Drink Discounts" src="http://thedrinkdeck.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/300x250_new3.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="250" /></a></p>
<p>Our playing card decks are produced in small batches so we can continually update our list of Venue Partners, keeping you up to date on what&#8217;s fresh and new in each city&#8217;s ever changing food &amp; drink scene. We focus on destinations in the US and UK that are known for excellent food &amp; drink, and help you by cutting down on the amount of research you need to do prior to planning a night out; or a visit to a new city.</p>
<p>Drink Deck is not for coupon clippers, but for those who enjoy a drink on the house or a little something off their bill at a venue that typically doesn&#8217;t play the deal of the day game. The special offers can add up though and using your Drink Deck just 1-3 times will pay you back on your investment. We recommend organizing £ offers by neighborhood and using those cards to create mini bar crawls. Spend £20, redeem your card and move on to the next venue! With % offers gather a group of friend, open a tab and the more you spend, the more you save! In one food and drink session spending just £100 you save £20, paying yourself back for your Drink Deck. Now you&#8217;re playing with house money&#8230;as they say!</p>
<p>Below is an example of a Drink Deck London card and some basic rules of engagement for using Drink Deck:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Each Drink Deck card has a patent pending tear corner. This corner is removed by the bar when you use your discount. Check out the bottom left-hand corner of a card from your playing card deck. For the smart phone apps just show the card image on your phone to your bartender or waiter/waitress. They tap the corner to void the card. If you don&#8217;t have a Drink Deck yet, visit <a href="http://thedrinkdeck.com/the-bars/" target="_blank">the Bars Page</a> to see the sample images of each bar&#8217;s card face for your city of choice.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Personally, I prefer my playing card deck. It&#8217;s tactile, fun to share with friends and creates spontaneity when selecting my next food &amp; drink venue. None the less, some Drink Deckers enjoy having their cards on their phone. People are much more protective of their mobile devices and less likely to leave it at home or spill a beverage on it! For these reasons, we&#8217;ll be developing Drink Deck London on iPhone and Android.</p>
<p>Yes, it&#8217;s a little pricey versus most other apps, BUT those apps typically just offer a service and don&#8217;t save you money like Drink Deck does! With our app you&#8217;ll get 52 discounts that will save you 100&#8242;s of £s and give you good recommendations for going out; not to mention a location based map for plotting the course! Additionally, when you purchase all 52 cards you&#8217;ll get free updates for the life of your device each time we reprint the next small batch print of physical playing cards!</p>
<p>Stay tuned for more details on Drink Deck London for your Smart Phone!</p>
