If you haven’t noticed over the past year or two, Sailor Jerry rum has been making a big play for the cool-kid Brooklyn market (and if you read the actual bio of the naval tattoo artist known as Sailor Jerry, you might even think they have some claim to it). To really cement your brand loyalty, it’s going big on Tuesday, aka Sailor Jerry Day, the anniversary of the day Jerry died: They’re giving away free “iconic” Sailor Jerry Anchor tattoos at Three Kings all night, followed by a party at Matchless featuring free SJ rum all night.

Selections from 2010 deal. This year's designs will be released Halloween day.

You’ve got two chances to save some money on a permanent reminder of your love of Halloween this year: Brooklyn Tattoo on Smith Street has already been doing $31 spooky tattoos all month; now Three Kings Tattoo in Williamsburg is back with its annual $31 sale on Halloween day only, from noon to 10pm. Patrons can choose a design from a flash sheet of seasonal images, which won’t be revealed until Halloween day. It gets packed, so make sure to get there early and get your name on the list. See the rest of last year’s offerings here. Rest assured that none of them will be as spooky as these tattoos.
