There was a bargain-happy hum around Washington Friday as LivingSocial attained the blessing of over one hundred D.C. restaurants to offer $1 lunch deals.

According to the mass e-mail sent to subscribers free of many around the city, ‘there’s rarely such thing as a $1 lunch’ concept was intended to not only take the edge off tax day, but to promote LivingSocial Instant, the company’s new program for patrons to access—you guessed it—instant deals.

Eighteen Georgetown eateries participated in offering the temporary dollar menu that ran from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. In most restaurants, $ 1 would buy $10  worth of food and beverages, while others, like Georgetown and Paper Moon Taj India, has offered $ 25 value menu items.
