Deal of the Day: Village Vines

Groupon, YouSwoop, Gilt Group, deal sites in Chicago are (lucky for us) a dime a dozen. But we've started to wonder if the 40% off you get on skydiving in Elmhurst is worth a clogged inbox. Enter Village Vines, a special site which offers daily deals on one thing, and one thing only, restaurants.

So, how does it work? Registered users get a daily e-mail with offers on select restaurants and if interested, pay $10 for a reservation online, which leads to a 30-percent discount off the check. Village Vine's process eliminates that awkward coupon exchange moment as physical coupons are not needed - the site’s reservation system flags members to the restaurants and automatically subtracts the discount from the bill.

The best part is, the restaurants are top-notch. Mia Francesca's, MK, De Cero, Elate and DuChamp are just a sample of the site's recent participants. Register here - it's worth it, we promise.
