Goldstar has an amazing selection of tickets to theater, sporting events, wine tastings, and even some trade shows. They are in several cities so plan ahead when you are traveling.  I have used this website many times and always got good seats in the promised section and they keep a record of your transactions in case you want to recommend a production.

Theater tickets for a year with a subscription to Theater Extras

Gift Certificates to these sites also make wonderful presents for birthdays and the upcoming holidays. You pick the amount and send it in a Holiday card.  All the time avoiding traffic and parking hassles. That’s how divas do it.

Let’s walk through the process with Hair at the Pantages. The Frugal Diva has a soft spot for this play from her era and wants to share the experience with the Frugal Dude.  Place an order for two tickets for Friday night in the rear orchestra.  They come to $50 each with fees while the full price ticket is $78.  This is a savings of $28 per ticket plus any fees that are added ordering at the full price.

Houston Rockets at the Staple Center playing the Lakers, even I know that’s an impossible ticket. What if they are playing the Clippers? Get into the cheap seats for $15 plus a $6.50 fee.

Half price cooking classes, children’s theater, and massages at the Cote d’Azur Spa in Old Town Pasadena.

There are a lot of newbies on the discount scene however the Frugal Diva likes oldies that deliver the goods. Count on Goldstar to have the best and be sure to check out their listings in other cities including NYC, San Francisco, Miami, Washington DC, and Viva Las Vegas.
