April showers bring May discounts! And if you live in Boston … more showers! We’re reserving the first Saturday member email of the month to share the newest discounts, deals, and freebies you can score with your B-Side Membership.
Here’s what’s happening in May:
👗 Let’s be real. Half the fun of thrifting is the hunt. Well, the hunt just got 10% better since you can get 10% off your purchase at Raspberry Beret consignment boutique in Allston and Cambridge. All the more reason to stop by their spring cleaning buyout event this weekend.
🧀 PSA: FREE CHARCUTERIE BOARD! We never met a plate of meat and cheese we didn’t like, so here’s a friendly reminder that if you flash your membership pass at Tuscan Kitchen’s Seaport or Burlington location, you’ll get a complimentary salumi board with your meal.
🙏 Thanks for being here! The rest of this exclusive B-Side Guide is for premium members who fund our journalism. If you start a 14-day trial, you’ll be able to continue reading at bside.beehiiv.com!
