Smash in Emerald City Eats

You've probably seen those new group coupon services popping up: Groupon, LivingSocial, etc.: they offer the opportunity to buy coupons at local establishments for steep discounts for a limited time (usually the deal is only offered for a single day). We mentioned LivingSocial's "$100 coupon for $50" Cantinetta deal a little while back, for example.

Happy Birthday, Dear Dick’s

Dick's is celebrating their 56th Anniversary this week. To celebrate, they're offering 2 for the price of 1 cheeseburgers today (Tuesday) from 2 - 6 pm and this Friday is 10¢ Coke Day, where all soft drinks are just a dime.

You know, when you start to think about all the things you could do…

Great deal at Cantinetta

We're not all about posting specials all willy-nilly, but $50 off a meal at Cantinetta seemed worthy: http://deals.livingsocial.com/deals/340?ref=email-jp&rpi=33428 Disclaimer: it's one of those "social deals", so if one more person uses that link, we get ours for free. That's not why we mentioned it, though, just a perk.
