Our rules for ads

The site is only worth advertising on if people trust it.

Always labeled

Every paid placement says Sponsored or Featured.

Lists stay honest

Paying never moves you up a list or into a collection.

Deals stay private

Offers go to subscribers only, so they stay worth signing up for.

Your words

Stories quote owners as written. We never invent details.

Questions

Is my business already listed?

Probably. We list 4,490 food businesses from county permit data. Search for yours above.

What does claiming cost?

Nothing. Claiming and editing your listing is free.

Why aren't deals shown on the website?

They go only to The Deal Curtain subscribers. That keeps the email worth joining and keeps your offer out of public price wars.

How do I know if Featured works?

Featured includes a monthly views report, and Deal Curtain and mailer offers carry a redemption code.

Are these prices final?

Not yet. These are introductory prices, and we confirm yours with you before anything is billed.

Can I remove my listing?

Yes. Owners can ask for corrections or removal at any time.

Ready when you are.
