For Special Occasions or a Quiet Night Out

I think being a Cheapskate doesn't mean you have to compromise on special occasions or times when you want to go out. Groupon and Scoopon are two great sites where you can get really, really good deals starting from dining all the way up to car cleaning etc. The other day my husband and I were celebrating a special occasion and I bought a nice breakfast for us in a great restaurant in the CBD, two spa treatments (60 minutes each) and a fantastic 3 course dinner with wine in a 5 star restaurant - all for $180. So make use of these sites as they have some great deals a lot of times which are totally worth it, without breaking your bank :)
