"Group-discount member sites like Groupon and Living Social are designed to make life cheaper and a little easier, right? They offer price breaks on things want to do anyway \u2014 shopping, dining out, etc. They promise to help curate experiences for you, saving you the time of searching through the millions of options out there. At least that&amp;#039;s the idea. But with all the discount-site offerings available, it&amp;#039;s enough work now just sifting through those alone. Ideeli, Gilt, Jetsetter, PopSugar, Google Offers, and Bloomspot \u2026 Whew! We&amp;#039;re going to help you cut through the clutter: Assuming you&amp;#039;re like us and are looking for great eating experiences and even better food for a little less cash, here are our favorite food-related discount-member sites for everything from fine dining to casual fast-food. Online sources for where to find cheap eats and dinners at a discount: Fine-Dining Deals Savored.com (formally villagevines.com) is a year-old site that offers up fine dining deals from top-tiered restaurants in 10 cities around the country. The good thing about the site is that, not only does it offer deals like 30% off high-end eateries, but you also get to make your reservation when you sign up for the deal. That makes it much easier to redeem your discount. Users start by creating an account, then entering their city. Select the date, time, and number of people in your party and the system spits out your options. On a recent test, I received over 40 choices for a prime-time table on a Friday night, all with 30% off the bill. (Note: Just remember to tip on the original check.) Another feature of the site: Users receive complementary access to Zagat ratings and reviews and cool picks from in-the-know food celebs. Fast-Food Finds Yes, Facebook is good for many things, including bragging about the discount dinner you just got from savored.com. And what it&amp;#039;s also good for are staying on top of the deals your favorite fast-food joints. If you click &amp;quot;Like&amp;quot; on any number of Fan pages, you&amp;#039;ll be the first one to know when McDonald&amp;#039;s is giving away free coffee. And signing up for Ben &amp;amp;amp; Jerry&amp;#039;s Twitter feed guarantees you&amp;#039;ll never forget when it&amp;#039;s free cone day. Happy Hours and Cheap Eats  Sometimes I kick myself when I think, &amp;quot;If only I&amp;#039;d left the office 30 minutes earlier, I&amp;#039;d have made happy hour!&amp;quot; (Hope my boss isn&amp;#039;t reading this!) Now I know what time happy hours run and where the best deals are with bitehunter.com. The site makes it easier to track down those fun times in New York, Chicago and San Francisco. And they have a downloadable App for when you are on the go and want to stumble to the next hour of happiness. Gift Cards Citydeals.com is a site that allows you to purchase gift cards with a higher monetary value than what you would&amp;#039;ve paid if you&amp;#039;d bought it conventionally. It seems to make no sense, but that&amp;#039;s what they do. So, essentially, it&amp;#039;s free money and you can look like you gave your friend a much fancier gift then you paid for, or spend more on yourself than your budget allows, guilt-free! Supermarket Savings Before you head to the grocery store, don&amp;#039;t forget to check Delish.com&amp;#039;s coupon channel where you can get dollars off those things you buy every time you&amp;#039;re at the supermarket anyway.
