Wanted: A Better Body for Summer

So summer is just a couple of months away, which means beach season. And let's be real - I'm feeling a little paunchy. No bikinis for me at the rate that I'm moving - which is not at all. So as part of my Los Angeles coupons research, I wanted to find a fun way to burn calories. Exercise has never been my friend - I need a workout that keeps me engaged. So I found this voucher online at SocialBuy.com, which has daily deals in LA, and it's ONLY $23 for 1 Month of self-defense cardio classes at White Tiger Kung Fu. It's on Westwood, so it's super-close and the Fight Fit class sounds like the the kind of thing I need to fight winter flab. Talk about healthy Los Angeles coupons!

Hitting the Slopes for Spring Break?

Spring Break is in two weeks and I'm hitting the slopes. I didn't get a chance to over Winter Break because of family stuff but I just recently found a site for Los Angeles coupons and it directed me to SocialBuy.com. And SocialBuy had a cheap deal on lift tickets at Mt. Baldy for only $32 (a $64 value.) It's a weekday lift ticket, but I'll be there during the week, so it works perfectly. I can ski, try out snowboarding, and they have 26 runs, so there's no shortage of excitement. It's a cool way to relax and get my adrenaline pumping after a horrendous finals week. Los Angeles coupons are the best way to go about getting these legit deals, otherwise, I feel like you get ripped off when planning this last minute vacations. And as a starving student with a skiing habit, finding Los Angeles coupons is my favorite thing to do.

50% Services at Plush Beauty Bar

Need a pick-me-up? I have the greatest of all Los Angeles coupons for you. Mention Recessionista LA at Plush Beauty Bar when you book before March 1 and receive 50% off services. Legit deal through Los Angeles coupons. Check. Plush Beauty Bar is on Santa Monica in West Hollywood and they are amazing for their express nail services. It's a great place for a manicure because it is so damn clean and the service is very personable and sweet. I have to say they cater to mothers, so they have a play area which is really cute. Just mentioning that in case you have a phobia of adorbable munchkins or you're trying to avoid the inevitable ticking of your biological clock. But anyway, go take advantage of my verbal Los Angeles coupons!

Free Music? Can't Get Any Better Than That

I have to admit that I love going to Starbucks and picking up Los Angeles coupons that give me my free iTunes song of the week, in addition to the free one iTunes gives you on Tuesday. With these Los Angeles coupons, I have gotten my new favorite songs, which are "July Flame" by Laura Veirs, "December" by Norah Jones, "Tin Man" by Animal Kingdom, and "Melody" by Kate Earl. I don't know if iTunes reads my mind, but I feel like they always pick songs that fit perfectly with my mood or taste at that specific moment. It's pretty cool to find Los Angeles coupons that always hit the right note.

I Feel Pretty. Oh So Pretty.

I like Los Angeles coupons and sales, especially ones on clothing. For instance, I subscribe to the Gilt Groupe, Shop It to Me, and Revolve Clothing among others to ensure that I am always stylish and never broke. You can choose to have them email you every week or every day, and for some of the services, tailor it to your specific taste and style. For instance, empire style dresses always me make me look preggers, so I never have Los Angeles coupons on those dresses sent to me. It is always exciting to wake up and shop from bed and I've gotten some wonderful pieces of clothing from these Los Angeles coupons, including this gorgeous cranberry cocktail dress from Revolve. Definitely a win.

Student ID? Oh yes!

I always forget that I am always carrying around Los Angeles coupons in my wallet - it's my student ID card. At most places, you can get legit discounts ranging from 10-20% And it's not just movie tickets, but one of my favorite restaurants, Damon and Pythias gives a 20% discount as does most of the hair salons in Westwood. Even though I'm telling your about these secret Los Angeles coupons, I really haven't taken as much advantage of it as I should have. Hmm... Maybe for next week, I'll post an entry of all the cool places to use your student ID at. That would help both you and me. Really, you are only young once, so use your Los Angeles coupons!

DailyCandy: The Non-Coupon Coupon Source

I love getting my email every morning from DailyCandy.com. Not only do they cool stuff to do but they also have these alerts on deals, which is super-cool - like deals at restaurants, stores, bars or online Los Angeles coupons. It's pretty cool to know about the upscale things I can do in LA without breaking the bank. Plus, the little blurbs in the emails are snarky and clever, and make me want to just run out of my office and enjoy everything Los Angeles has to offer. And with the psuedo-Los Angeles coupons they have online, I don't have to feel guilty about missing work. So subscribe to DailyCandy.com and bask in the glory of saving money, with or without Los Angeles coupons.
