How to let employers know that I'm currently holding an offer from elsewhere

I'm still applying to employers in my primary market of choice, but recently got an offer from an employer in a different market.

In my future applications, should I let the employers know that I'm holding an offer from an employer? If so, should that information go into the cover letter or just in an email (whether separate email, or email application w/ my materials)?

Is it rude to just let them know that I have an offer that will expire on a certain date, and hope to reach a decision before the offer expires?
