Discount off LOADS of stuff from Melocard
It's almost time to dig out the lights, baubles and tinsel. Christmas is just around the corner, and it's an exciting year to celebrate the season in East Kent with the official launch of Melocard, the discount card for kent, at the Folkestone Christmas Spectacular.
On the 28th of November, Folkestone is putting on one of the best all-day Christmas events in the county, with festive music, reindeer, dazzling decorations, great food, Father Christmas, and of course, Melocards! Your Melocard will give you exclusive discounts at over 80 local shops and businesses, from coffees to flowers to spa treatments to home stereos. What better way to gift yourself this season than with cash savings?
Melocards cost just 10, and give you deals and discounts until March 2011. They can be purchased online at melocard.com/getacard1, or on 28 November at any Melocard InfoPoint in Folkestone.
When you get your Melocard on or before 28 November, you'll also get exclusive access to the first ever Melocard Christmas Treasure Trail - a festive prize hunt where you can enter to win loads of exciting gifts in shops across Kent. 'Tis the season to be jolly you know!

This is part of my site The FG that I built in a fever of excitement when we first moved here sometime in '04. I had been a regular visitor for a while previous to that but I am technically one of those DFLs you get nowadays. This site used to be updated more frequently with a gig calendar + voting for favourite places + things, + I know it was a handy resource for others who were moving to the area. Now I've moved out of Folkestone again (though only to Hythe) it doesn't get as much love as it used to. Ironic really as Folkestone itself is now becoming the exciting place we always thought it was just about to. I am not Gerald by the way, this comes from the name of a pretend newspaper in an episode of The Day Today or something, the Portsmouth Gerald, + how there is a local paper here called the Folkestone Herald. Puns like this are GRATE aren't they? Do contact me if you have anything to offer, email anythign @ this domain, or try @folkestone or @pauly on Twitter.
