Try This Trick! Free Food Week!

A couple days ago I received a tweet from Tenka, a mobile coupon provider, about free food week. Before sharing with you, I wanted to try it out.

I connected to Tenka via Facebook, and saw 6 freebie offers - like free falafel and drink at Mamoun’s. There was also a deal for Two [...]

Hooray! I Got Rid of My Voucher on dealigee

Last week we told you about dealigee, a new website where you can buy and sell vouchers. While we played around with the site prior to writing the post, I was able to actually use the site last week, and thought I’d share my experience.

On Thursday of last week, I remembered that my [...]

Try This Trick: Sell Your Groupons!

Sometimes I get really excited when I see a great deal on Groupon, KGB Deals or LivingSocial. I buy it and then wonder, “Oh my God, when am I gonna use this?”

I’m not the only one who suffers from that OMG moment - Caryn sent me a frantic email a few months back [...]

Try This Trick! Cash Back When Shopping Online!

Almost a year ago, I wrote about Bing Cashback and how you can use this site to get money back when shopping online. I raved about it, and told everyone I knew that they had to use it when shopping online. A few weeks back I shared the site with a friend, who then [...]

Try This Trick! Introducing InBundles!

By now, you’ve probably come across some of our favorite deal sites - ScoopSt, Dealist and Groupon. Well, get ready for a new site to join the mix - InBundles.

Try This Trick! My Open Bar

I find that in the winter it can often be hard to convince friends to meet you at a bar - especially when its below 20 degrees and you need to lug a jacket. But when offered free booze, it is a completely different story - everyone wants to go out.

One of my [...]

Try This Trick! Check out the Post Grad blog!

Whether you are in the process of moving to New York City or have lived here for a few years, let’s face it - living in New York can be tough. While there are plenty of sources out there explaining what to do if you are a visitor in NYC, few provide tips on [...]

Try This Trick! Prescription Glasses Starting at $8!

I’ll be honest - the last time I purchased new prescription glasses was my senior year of college…because Dad was footing the bill (thanks, Andy). A few years back, I got as far as actually purchasing glasses, but quickly returned them after seeing several hundred dollars appear on my credit card statement.

Fast forward [...]

Try This Trick! Get Cashback for Online Purchases!

I rarely shop online, but when I do, I spend countless minutes (one time even an hour) surfing the Web for coupon codes in hopes that I save a few bucks. Often times, half these codes don’t work and I end up disgruntled (yet still order the item). The other night, my roommate introduced [...]

Free Country Music!

So while our main focus here is meals and deals, I cannot pass on sharing a good link. Just a bit of background - I’ll confess that I’m a pretty big country fan and despite living in one of the greatest cities, I really have the biggest desire to go to Nashville.
