Good morning and thank you for visiting the Deal Diary.
1/2 off baseball camp! $89 gets you a week at Frozen Ropes in Albany for kids btw 6-18. Can anyone explain the significance of the name of this place? Is it a sports reference or just totally random? This is regularly $185 and you must register by 6/15. Register for Groupon here. Go to the deal here.

Spare Time of East Greenbush has a $35 gets you 2 hours of bowling for up to 6 peeps with shoes, pizza and pop – an $88 value. OK.

Wow, great deal on Zoya nail colors. They are doing an Earth Day (week) promotion where you can get their polishes for free and just pay s/h of $4 per bottle. It’s called the Nail Polish Exchange and they’d like you to send back old polishes you no longer use after you’ve received your order. Considering their colors are $8 per + shipping, I’d qualify this as a pretty great deal. The caveat is you must purchase at least 6 bottles and no more than 24. The other caveat isn’t returning the polish – that’s up to you and you’ll still get your polishes if you don’t.

Tomorrow morning don’t forget! Get free Starbucks coffee or tea when you present your travel mug and say please.

Also Tomorrow Friday 4/22 only – Get a free full-sized Origins facial cleanser at the Origins counter when you fill out this form and bring it with a cleanser you no longer use (full or empty). The only Origins in this area that pops up on their store finder is in Macy’s Colonie Center.
