The Bite:
Pick up an insider's guide to green in your city. Like a green Zagat's, these "little green books" offer exclusive deals and purse or glovebox convenience so you'll always know where to go.

The Benefits:
- Like having a green tour guide for your town.
- Support local green businesses.
- Exclusive deals. Instead of Burger King coupons, get thousands of bucks in free yoga lessons, 2-fer-1 meals at organic restaurants, and eco-furniture rebates.
Personally Speaking:
The Bozeman team's a little jealous - SF's Green Zebra coupon book pretty much rocks - free spa treatments, carshare credit, and a whole lot more.
Wanna Try:
- San Francisco - Green Zebra coupon book ($25).
- Bellingham, WA - Where the Locals Go coupon book ($10).
- Ft Collins, CO - Be Local coupon book ($10).
- Los Angeles - Greenopia guide ($13).
- Minneapolis/St. Paul - Blue Sky Guide coupon book ($20) and Do It Green! guide ($7).
- New York City - The Big Green Apple guide ($11a).
- Portland, OR - Chinook Book coupon book ($20).
- Seattle - Chinook Book coupon book ($20).

Cocktail Fact
Nina and Tim Zagat started their famous guidebook in '79, surveying drunk friends at their monthly wine-tasting group's dinner.
Bang For The Bite
The discounts and insider info are brill, but since they aren't available everywhere, gotta knock a few apples.
