Feeling the recession, but still want to get out of the house? You might consider signing up for Goldstar, which helps you to “Go out more”. They offer half-price tickets on plays, concerts, sporting events, and museum exhibits.
So far, it includes events in these areas: Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, D.C. Metro, New York, Boston, San Diego, and Las Vegas. Events are summarized into weekly e-mails, and there is also a social networking component where they collect a lot of individual reviews of each event.
For example, if you live in the SF Bay Area, you could ride an all-day Golden Gate Bay Cruise this weekend for $11, see the Giants play baseball tonight for just $5, watch professional beach volleyball for $5, or even watch bassist Charlie Haden at Yoshi’s Jazz Club for free.
They do tack on a service fee for each ticket, which varies but is at least disclosed relatively early. I saw from $2 to $6 per ticket. For each new friend you refer that joins Goldstar, you get $1 credit towards service fees.
