Thrifty Tip Of The Day – Free Admission To Museums, Zoos With Your Bank Of America Card

Posted by oshun on May 1, 2009

Free Museums

Fresh on the heels of reporting billions of dollars of profits, and shedding the Countrywide stigma, Bank Of America is spiffing up its public image by allowing card holders coast-to-coast access to museums and other fun spots for free.

The bank is expanding its Museums on Us® program, which will now provide cardholders free access to 120 of the nation’s finest arts, cultural and educational institutions during the first full weekend of every month.

Participants include the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Art Institute of Chicago. See full list.

All you have to do is flash your ATM, credit or check card and a valid photo ID to gain free general admission. The fun starts this coming weekend, and continues the first full weekend of each month through December 4-5, 2010.

Not sure if this free admission extends to children, and it doesn’t really say on the site, but we will definitely be checking out the Atlanta Botanical Garden and the zoo this weekend!

Thanks Mindi!
