This week, I won (read: harassed my friends to vote for me until I won) 10 free dates from HowAboutWe.com— NYC’s latest up-and-coming dating site. And I’m thrilled! I know, I live in New York; and yes, there’s a free event raging at any given moment, but that doesn’t mean a bitch doesn’t want to sit down and have a nice dinner once in awhile.
Truth is, I love dating. But it’s expensive! I’m a nontraditional chick, and I like to do my part. I don’t show up on dates and do the unenthusiastic reach-for-my-wallet, I’m-doing-this-slowly-so-you’ll-have-time-to-tell-me-you’ll-take-care-of-the-check move. Most of my dates have ended in some variation of going dutch. I’m a little more than excited that I’ll be able to take someone (a few someones… ahem… if you know anyone…) out without the awkward-yet-inevitable squabble over who’s paying for what.
I realize I’m in a rare (awesome) position, though, which is why I’ve taken the liberty of directing you to this list of bars that give you free food with your booze. You’ll get your fancy dinner someday, princess.
Here’s a taste of the snacks you can snag:
“Rodeo Bar (375 3rd Avenue): Although the atmosphere can get a bit wild, this bar is always a good time. Happy hour goes until 9 PM every night and has pretty good lime or strawberry margaritas for $6 a pop and $4 draft beers. If you get there before 8 PM during the week you can partake in the feast of buffalo wings and nachos, free of charge.”Check out the rest of the list here on ShortandSweetNYC
