Foursquare Discounts: Free Cupcake, Anyone?

istock

Foursquare, a location-based social networking app, has allowed businesses to offer freebees to attract new customers, and perks to attract loyal customers. And, while business participation is sparse in Honolulu, there are discounts to be found. Show the business your phone when you check in to save some bucks.
