Before rolling out budget cuts later this week, Mayor Newsom is helping out the local economy by asking you to do all of your holiday shopping here in San Francisco. To tempt you to get off l'internet and into the stores, a new city-wide incentive program called Shop SF, Get More will encourage SF residents to "visit, shop, and stay" in San Francisco during December and January.

What's in it for you? Well, these promotions and discounts are a start.

Show Your Zip Code: residents in the nine-county Bay Area are eligible to receive special discounts, by showing their ZIP code at participating merchants.

Parking and Public Transit Discounts: locals and visitors can ride Muni and explore San Francisco on one transfer all day, every Sunday with the Sunday FunDay Pass. Cars entering designated city-owned parking garages receive special validation under the Ride with More, Park for Less incentive program.

Hotels: San Francisco hotels are offering reduced rates, complimentary parking and breakfast, and a variety of discounted holiday packages. In January, select San Francisco hotels will be offering, "3 Nights for the Price of 2."
