Weekly Deal Roundup

Just a few deals that are catching my eye this week, in no particular order . . .

Attention DC area readers: It's DC's restaurant week this week (Aug. 16-22)!  Most participating restaurants are offering fixed-price meals for $20.10 for lunch and $35.10 for dinner.  See all the details here.  While this may not exactly be a freebie, these are definitely bargain prices for nice restaurants, and a great opportunity if you have a special occasion to celebrate!

Also for locals, if you live in the Shirlington area, check out Your Shirlington for regularly updated free events and coupons.

For you fellow moms of little girls - American Girl is having a clearance sale, with prices up to 70% off!  This Snowy Day dress for little girls is $15, marked down from $48!

I'm noticing a few good new coupons on Coupons.com this week, such as another $1.00/2 Bic stationery products (combine with Target coupon to get free pens); $2.00 off Huggies Little Snugglers diapers; and a free Fruista freeze at Taco Bell with any purchase.  Print these now if you're interested, before they reach their limits!

After hearing a lot about it on frugal blogs, I'm starting to get into Groupon.  Today's DC deals were of interest to me, so I thought I'd share them.  You can get half price tickets to The Shakespeare Theatre's All's Well That Ends Well or half off a dozen gourmet cupcakes at Bittersweet Cafe in Alexandria.  Shakespeare and cupcakes - what could be sweeter? :-)  Just go to Groupon and choose DC as your city; look for the side deals on the right of the page if you don't see these right away.

Have you heard of Weekly Cinema?  This appears to be a type of club that gives you deeply discounted movie tickets for a certain fee per month.  This could be really worth it if you see movies regularly; I definitely don't have the opportunity to go the movies enough to make it worthwhile.  Has anyone ever tried this service?

Crystal shares here how to get a subscription to Family Fun Magazine for just $3.73/year.  I subscribe to this magazine and love the fun seasonal ideas it share.  It also occasionally has a couple of high-value grocery coupons or Gymboree coupons that make it extra worthwhile.
