Not to be missed, FourSquare Day is arriving in Portsmouth this Friday as part of International FourSquare Day. Participants around the world will try to rack up the most points and goodies as they canvas local "check-in" points.
Everyone is familiar with the old school playground game of FourSquare, but in 2010 the contest has taken on a whole new viral meaning, fueled by cellular technology and social networking. Participants travel from site to site, where they "check in" on their mobile devices in order to alert friends of their location and collect special offers in a hi tech version of a scavenger hunt. As players check-in, they collect recognition in the form of badges, earn cool rewards, and can ultimately be named "mayor" of any particular spot by becoming the most frequent visitor.
On Friday, businesses around the Portsmouth area will provide all kinds of incentives to get folks to check-in at as many spots as possible. Take part in this cool new means of local exploration while supporting local business.
Fast Eddie's Dirty Laundry will be offering 20% regular priced purchases to any who checks-in at the store.
