AUGUSTA, GA - It’s a win-win situation for everyone. Shoppers get to experience the best downtown shops, galleries and restaurants have to offer, while businesses get a little extra foot traffic, which will hopefully turn into future dollars.

It’s Discover Downtown, a DA Squared event based on their recent Brand New Deal. The concept is simple: shoppers purchase a $5 passport from participating businesses listed below. For their $5, they get a free gift from each of the businesses listed in the passports.

Some of those gifts include the following:
Lip balm from Cloud Nine
A book from The Book Tavern
Hair products from Halo Salon & Spa
Incense from Brigan’s Land of Enchantments
A long-stemmed rose from Flowers Xpress
A pocket knife from United Loan & Firearms

Food samples will be offered from a variety of downtown restaurants and stores, including DuJour Fine Foods, 1102 Downtown Bar & Grill, White Elephant, Metro A Coffeehouse, New Moon Cafe, The Rooster’s Beak, Caribbean Soul, T-Boys Po-Boys, Casa Blanca Coffee Cafe, Boll Weevil and more.

Coupon books can be purchased, in advance or on the day of the event, from Blue Magnolia, The Book Tavern, Health Central, Ninth Street Wine Market, Augusta Visitor Information Center, Vintage Ooollee, Oasis Garden and the Metro Spirit.

DA Squared hopes to make Discover Downtown an annual event.
