Food.Fun.Stuff: Something New
This just in:
Groupon is the new deal-a-day website that just launched in Washington, D.C. today (May 26). For its first DC deal, Washingtonians pay $10 to receive a $25 Groupon to Panache Restaurant at 1725 DeSales St. NW; more details here.
Groupon offers deals on a wide variety of goods and services -- from sky box seating at baseball games to huge discounts on meals at fancy restaurants to dental and eye exams -- in DC as well as Chicago (*the sites hometown), Boston and New York City. Almost 150,000 people in Chicago, Boston, NYC and now DC subscribe to the city-specific daily newsletters, which present the daily deal in those cities. In DC, it launched at midnight with more than 10,000 people already subscribed to the DC newsletter.
To give you a better idea about the wide range of deals Groupon will offer in DC, here's what they have to offer for the rest of the week:
5/27/09: Five Pilate's mat classes classes for $30 at Mind-Body Fitness, 1209 10th St. NW (rear)
5/28/09: $20 for a $45 Groupon at All Star DC Tours
5/29/09: $35 for a one-hour massage (regularly $75) at Lunar Massage, 1101a 5th St. NW (*This is an insanely low price for a massage in the District these days...)
In these hard economic times, who can pass up a good deal??
