For Nate Petersen it started as a simple desire to take his wife out to dinner. Then, it became a tiny idea validated by the purchase of the web domain FallsFood.com. Finally, after years of tinkering with the idea and growing the courage to leave his “real job,” his idea became a business.

Monday through Friday, the site conducts three daily $25 gift card giveaways to local businesses and restaurants. There is no subscription fee and its free to join.
