We were recently introduced to a new DC website which is worth checking out. It’s called What’s the Deal DC.

Tired of sitting at home twiddling your thumbs, eating Ramen noodles, and being sad about the recession?

The site focuses on fun things to do and buy in the DC Metro area (restaurants, spas, theaters, sporting events, etc). And the best part, for those of you who can’t find two nickels to rub together, it’s a great way to try new things in the city on the cheap.

How it works:

1. We find fun things to do in the DC area and negotiate great discounts
2. Each day a brand new deal is sent to our listserv and posted on our website
3. Users who want to buy the deal click the "Deal Me In" button and enter their billing info
4. As long as we line up the minimum number of purchasers, everyone gets the discount and credit cards are charged
5. WTD sends your coupon via e-mail and you hit the town
6. Check back every day for a new deal

Give it a shot.
