Some people only think of Labor Day as a paid day off. Others know the history behind it and honor it. Traditionally, Labor Day is celebrated by most Americans as the symbolic end of the summer. But common knowledge is that it’s a day for celebration. Parades are held for a variety of reasons but are usually celebrations of some kind.
As most of you might know, a parade is usually organized along a street and consists of floats, large balloons, marching bands, costumes, entertainment acts, and candy. The people that make up the parade are usually local people and local business.
Support your local community and bring the family on down to your local Labor Day Parade. Check out RTownShopper.com for half off restaurant gift certificates to local restaurants for after the parade.

It’s peak season for your local farmers’ market. Shop local, save big. Sound familiar? That’s because it’s RTownShopper.com’s tagline and one that we believe in.
Farmers’ market advocates believe the markets help farmers stay in business as well as preserve natural resources. They also provide an opportunity for farmers and people from urban communities to deal directly with each other rather than through third parties and to thereby get to know and learn from one another. Wholesale prices farmers get for their produce are very low, often near the cost of production. Farmers who sell direct to the public without going through a middle man get a better price. It can be shown that the preservation of farmland is important for the health of the environment and water supply. According to the American Farmland Trust, sustainable and managed farms conserve soil and clean water and provide a habitat for wildlife.
Farmers’ market produce is renowned for being locally grown and very fresh and often features naturally or organically grown produce. You’ll find the season’s best vegetables, fruits, flowers, and specialty products all produced in Wisconsin. Farmers’ markets often feature meats that are raised humanely on pasture, handmade cheeses, eggs, and free-range poultry. Produce is picked at peak times, preserving the nutritional content of fresh produce. Since locally grown produce doesn’t have to travel far, the difference in mileage saves fossil fuels.

Baseball will always be America’s pastime and we’re very lucky to have in Northeast Wisconsin the Minor League Brewers Affiliate- Wisconsin Timber Rattlers. The Timber Rattlers have been gaining a lot of press lately, especially with the new deals on RTownShopper.com. For the last month, RTownShopper has been promoting Timber Rattlers tickets, giving fans a good reason to buy them at 50% off.
Catch the game on Monday, August 2nd at Fox Cities Stadium. First pitch is at 7:05PM. These tickets are available at 50% off on RTownShopper. And just to make the night even sweeter, there’s a mouse pad giveaway.
Back in May 2010, the T-Rats traveled to Miller Park in Milwaukee for a big game against the Cedar Rapids Kernels. Don’t know any of the players? Get to know your main guys here. In the video, many of the players are genuinely excited waiting for the game to start. Right handed pitcher, Chad Robinson even tells us that his first impression of Miller Park is that he feels like a little kid again! The Timber Rattlers normally play on their home turf at the Fox Cities Stadium in Appleton, Wisconsin.
Bringing a big family or group to a baseball game isn’t always easy and it definitely isn’t cheap. But when you buy tickets on RTownShopper, you get to take the crew for half the price. Make a Timber Rattlers game the perfect summer outing with help from RTownShopper!

Our customers are priority and we’re very fortunate to be able to provide you with so many savings opportunities. But RTownShopper.com is about more than saving money. It’s also about bringing people together: new customers into businesses, treating the family to a round of mini-golf, or taking your loved-one out for a special evening. For you gentlemen out there, we’ve come up with a creative way for you to use RTownShopper to plan an entire weekend getaway with your sweetheart, fit to end with a proposal.
First, make sure everything is covered; you’ve asked her father’s permission for her hand in marriage, you’ve planned out the romantic getaway, the car is packed, and you’ve arranged for Lovin’ Pets to take care of your pooch while you’re away.
The first activity for this special weekend is Serenity Day Spa and Salon where you’ll both relax with a one-hour massage, facial, sugar scrub, and rain forest shower.
After she feels rejuvenated, take her to get her hair professionally done at Royal Hair Designs, because you know she’ll want to look nice for your next activity. Next stop is to visit photographer Debbie Daanen to ensure this day is remembered forever.
Finally, it’s time to check into your room at Sybaris, the perfect romantic getaway spot.  Waiting in the room is a gorgeous arrangement of flowers from Belle Fiori.
Dinner reservations are at 8 so you both rush to get ready for dinner at Millhome Supper Club where their mission is to “give you a dining experience that is second to none…”
After dinner, she may find it strange that she’s all dressed up for the night of bowling you’ve planned at the 10th Frame, but she goes along with it.  As she gets ready to bowl and puts her fingers in the appropriate holes, a ring slips onto her finger. You’re already down on one knee behind her as she turns around, nodding her head yes.
