Free Margarita Coupons Are Being Placed Around The CSRA – You Just Have To Find Them
It’s the season of giving right?! Well the Owners of two local Mexican restaurants, Taqueria El Rey La Cocina De El Rey, are certainly doing their part. They have been placing coupons for a free small lime margarita at different businesses around the CSRA. For those who don’t drink or are underage, you will be able to enjoy a free cheese dip instead.
Free queso or a free margarita is definitely the way to spread some holiday cheer!
To find out where they will be handing out cards each day will probably be best through social media.
Where Have The Tickets Already Been Put?
December 5
Home Depot in Evans was one of the first to receive its scattered El Rey coupon cards. They were placed on the grills, on cactus plants, on the lava lamps, and more!
December 6
Kroger on Columbia Road in Martinez got its special coupons. They were placed in the cheese section, the bakery section, the fruit section, and more. And of course, they were put in the alcohol section!
December 7
SAMS Club shoppers got their exclusive coupons. Home Goods also got them too!
For the remainder dates up until now (December 11) they have placed these cards in a little bit of everywhere:
- Bath and Body Works
- Walmart on Bobby Jones
- Target in Evans
- Ross in Evans
They even handed out coupons to volunteers who were helping out at the Compass for Hope event. And if you’ve been doing some traveling, they recently dropped them at the Augusta Regional Airport!
Have you snagged a coupon yet? We are not sure how long this will be happening, but it seems like there’s a good chance you will get your hands on one. The coupons will expire May 24, 2024.
What spot do you think they will hit next? Again to keep up with the daily drop it’s probably best to take a look the social media!
Ranking The 4 Best Hard Seltzers
Since Memorial Day I have been fortunate enough to attend a wedding, beachside barbeques, and neighborhood get-togethers. Though food options varied, I did notice hard seltzers were a common beverage. There were multiple brands, so I decided to rank the ones that I tried.
Bon & Viv Spiked Seltzer can be credited as the first official can to hit the shelves in 2013. Or you can go back to Zima as being a pioneer in this carbonated alcohol space. Nowadays, it seems like every brand has their own variation of spiked seltzer. With limited creativity in terms of flavor options (most people would prefer a simple pineapple flavor to a green apple, cherry, celery mashup any time), now certain beverage companies are swapping out the vodka mix for tequila. Furthermore, funny commercials and vibrant cans allow different marketing angles on seemingly similar drinks.
Speaking of marketing, a thinner can is often associated with containing a lower-calorie drink. A CNN op-ed speculates that most hard seltzers are displayed in these taller, skinny cans to distinguish themselves in a crowded liquor store.
My Methodology
In creating this ranking of the best hard seltzers, there were certain criteria that I considered to be most important. Taste is a broad category. It was imperative here that the drink was smooth, did not contain a syrupy aftertaste and actually tasked like the flavor it suggests. Then, I looked at the overall “nutrition” facts. Finally, I’d ask myself a question: “Would I drink another one, or would I buy a case of this repeatedly?”
It’s important to note that I disqualified top beer brands. While I applaud their efforts for the attempt at entering the hip space, I have yet to find one where their best product was not actually their beer. Lastly, I am not a big fruit juice person. Nor do I typically like citrus mixed with alcohol. In this case, however, there are four hard seltzers where I find the fruit flavor enjoyable. My top choice here is now a brand that I do keep stocked in my cooler.
