This Friday the 13th, you could celebrate with a horror-movie marathon, or you could head over to one of these 20 tattoo shops and get some fresh ink. Several shops around town will host specials to recognize the day, offering flash tattoos for a discounted rate. The tattoos shown here are not the tattoos that are being offered during Friday's specials. You can give these places a call or check out their sites for more information.
If you’ve been holding off on getting your next (or first!) tattoo and you’re also looking for a way to help flood victims, Toy4Tats.com has got you covered.
According to Toy4Tats.com, which is presented by Platinum Tattoos & Piercings, if you bring in a $20 toy that will go to the families of flood victims, you’ll get a $60 tattoo for free.
SAN ANTONIO - The holidays can be the time of year when we see generosity and kindness come to light. One San Antonio business is using body art to give back to the community.
People get tattoo for all kinds of reasons. We stopped in as Dalia Nunez was getting her second one in two weeks. She's always wanted them, and these go beyond just something for her.
"It's a good cause, plus it helps out the kids," she said.
She's talking about a special toy drive at Platinum Tattoos and Body Piercings called Toy4Tats. It was started up five years ago by owner Noah Yuchnitz.
SAN ANTONIO – Platinum Tattoos & Body Piercings is offering free $60 tattoos in exchange for a $20 toy donation.
The special runs through the end of the year and all donations received by Nov. 17 will go to the victims of the recent South Texas floods and less fortunate children.
All donations received from Nov. 18 through Dec. 31 will go toward a Christmas toy drive as part of a Toys4Tats fundraiser.
Platinum Tattoos is located at 5545 NW Loop 410 and is open seven days a week.
