30% Off Select Home Warranty Plans

Winter is barreling toward your house like a… barrel? We’ll go out on a limb and assume your appliances are starting to feel the cold just as much as you are, but here’s the thing about that: regular Homeowners insurance doesn't usually cover appliance wear and tear. Right now, during its December sale, American Home Shield is offering 30% off select coverage plans on appliances that are new or decades old (No inspections or maintenance records are required). If a covered item breaks, they’ll send one of their thousands of trusted professional technicians to repair it. If it can’t be fixed, AHS will replace it. Don’t wait until the first cold snap, lock in 30% off today!*

LOCALS ONLY

• A night of music, resistance, and community support for Chicago families impacted by ICE. 100% of proceeds go to directly affected neighbors. Happening next month.

• This dodgeball showdown is Santa vs. Grinch with bragging rights (and toys) on the line. Going down this Saturday at SPF Chicago.

• Saturday night, a live dueling piano show with a yuletide twist is happening at Pippin’s Tavern. Wear your ugly sweater!
