MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Milwaukee shoppers can receive a free $25 gift card when they purchase $25 or more in gift cards from participating local businesses Monday, Dec. 15 through Christmas Eve.

The Buy Local Bonus Campaign, part of the Visit Milwaukee Foundation, provides customers with a free $25 gift card from the same business at the time of purchase while supplies last. The program is designed to support Milwaukee restaurants, bars, shops and breweries during the holiday season.

More than 30 businesses are participating, including Sprecher Brewery, Third Space Brewing, Cafe Corazon, Maxie's and Cousins Subs. A full list of participating businesses is available by clicking here.

The Visit Milwaukee Foundation buys gift cards directly from participating businesses, providing them with guaranteed revenue upfront. Once a business runs out of bonus gift cards, the promotion ends at that location.

Mayor Cavalier Johnson promoted the campaign Monday on social media, encouraging residents to buy local.
