Grahamstown NOW, introduced in June 2010 and re-launched in February 2011, is a Grocott's Mail mobile phone offering that brings together all sorts of handy info about what's going on in Grahamstown at any given time. Users can view useful stuff like local event listings, business specials, local radio and movie schedules, the latest news from Grocott's Online, current weather conditions and even live snapshots from webcams around town.

Grahamstown NOW has been designed to inform you about what's going on right now, and what's coming up in the near future, so it's always changing and fully up-to-date with what's ticking in this town -- perfect for staying in the know even when you're on the go.

A key part of Grahamstown NOW is the business specials. These specials are displayed according to the time(s) that they are valid. They appear in the main ON NOW section if they're happening right now, or with a countdown in the COMING UP section if they're about to begin. For example, if the pizza special at Restaurant X is valid on Monday nights from 7pm, and someone checks out  Grahamstown NOW at 4.30pm on a Monday, they'll see "2 hours 30 mins until 2-for-1 pizza special at Restaurant X" displayed in the COMING UP section. Nifty!
