Otto leaves

Otto encourages you to advertise on AOA. And watch out for zombies.

This week your AOA fix was brought to you by pizza, pizza, pizza, more pizza -- and zombies. (Yes, Sandor... zombies.)

It was also brought to you by some really cool local businesses that you've seen advertised on the site. Check them out when you have a moment, and tell them AOA sent you

Want to advertise your business on AOA? Here's how.

+ Central Art Supply on Lark Street and Pigment, coming soon to Troy. Check out Pigment's open house at tonight's Troy Night Out.

+ The Wine Bar and Bistro on Lark has an awesome asparagus soup. Check out their new "wine after work" happy hour with $5 house wine and $3 pints of beer.

+ The Midtown Tap and Tea Room is a great place for a holiday cocktail party or just a drink and great food. Try the chickpeas and sausage. Yum.

+ If you're already thinking about resolutions for 2010, the Sidney Albert Jewish Community Center in Albany is offering 30% off gym memberships if you sign up from November 8th through the 13th.

+ Sunmark Federal Credit Union, sponsors of the AOA Tournament of Pizza. Their Facebook page has savings tips, links to some interesting financial info and details on their on-line defensive driving courses.

+ Giorgio's salon on Johnson Road in Latham is offering a free Goldwell serum treatment with every color when you tell them you saw them on AOA.

+ Bilinski chicken sausage, made in Cohoes, has a great deal going on right now at Price Chopper: two packages for $7.

+ Stop in and see Gustav, the cheese guy, at The Honest Weight Food Coop. The man really knows his cheese.
