"You know, I'd really like to pay more than I have to for stuff," said no one ever. And these days, it seems like we are paying plenty for most things. So, if there's a way to get more for less, it seems like a no brainer that we'd go ahead and do that. As usual, Bergen Mama has your back.
This week, we launched Bergen Mama Insider, a membership program that gives Bergen Mama's most loyal readers a deeper connection to the local businesses we all love and rely on with exclusive first dibs on deals, discounts, and first looks in and around Bergen County.
Our inaugural list of local favorites represents the very best Bergen County (and nearby neighbors) has to offer and, more importantly, included businesses that already have your loyalty. So, if you're patronizing these establishments anyway, this is a way to make your hard-earned dollars stretch a little further, and a way to support the places that power our communities.
The benefits of Bergen Mama Insider will be updated quarterly and will include a diverse range of perks including complimentary items and discounts as a percentage or dollar amount, to name a few.
From now until April 30th, Bergen Mama Insiders can get a head start on that summer beach body, or try a brand new work out at particpating fitness locations including: Cyclebar Closter, Fort Lee, and Wyckoff, Wellnessesity, Stretch Out, YogaSix Norwood, Insight Yoga & Meditation, Pure Barre Park Ridge and Wyckoff, Row House, Rise Training and Nutrition, Real Hot Yoga of NJ Englewood and Ridgewood, and Elevate Stair Climb Studio.
