Maybe you already have a rain barrel at home, or maybe you need one too. You might know someone with a thirsty garden, or someone who uses rain water as a way to reduce their water and sewer bills. Rain barrels are a way to conserve water and improve our local environment; they divert water away from building foundations, slow water run-off, reduce the amount of water entering storm drain systems, and reduce the amount of pollution that is carried into our waterways. What a great gift!!!
A Buffalo ReUse Rain Barrel includes: a 55 gallon food grade barrel, a hose bibb (spigot), a screened drain cover, all fully assembled, and instructions for installing the rain barrel under your downspout. Once installed, the barrel will hold 55 gallons of high quality rain water, and you can attach a hose and use it for whatever you want.
Save more than 30% on Rain Barrels, only on Black Friday. No other discounts or offers are good with this deal. Get ‘em while they last!

From our good friends at PUSH:
The countdown to Buffalo Takes Manhattan IV continues. Thousands of wings, Bocce’s pizza, a tailgate party with Labatts and Flying Bison, an array of Buffalo-themed prizes, and a great dance party to boot.
We know that the Bills are a better team than their record suggests. To give them the extra edge they need to win a game, we will ask Steve Mesler, Olympic Gold Medalist, to lead us in a moment of silence, during which we will focus all of our positive energy on our favorite team as they prepare to beat the Lions the following day and garner their first win.
Other reasons to be there include:
Buffalo Takes Manhattan IV!
Saturday, November 13th, 7:30 PM to 1 AM
A Tailgate Party in Times Square
330 W. 42nd Street, 33rd Floor
$25 online, $30 at the door, food included
A free drink to those dressed in Buffalo tailgate apparel
