This Valentine's Day weekend (Feb. 13-14), we're teaming up with eight local businesses to give New Yorkers the chance to eat, drink, shop and relax, all while saving some cash. We're calling it Local Love, and we even have a fancy logo to go with it! From discounts and freebies to in-store events like tarot card readings and Champagne, what's not to love?

The only thing sweeter than an after-dinner drink is a free after-dinner drink. Citysearch readers who dine at Aleo on Valentine's Day weekend will get a homemade limoncello or other cordial on the house following their meal.
Get ready to splurge with Champagne, mini cupcakes and a complimentary manicure with any spa treatment. Acqua will also be offering couple massages at the discounted rate of $170.
Fall in love all over again with Philip Marie's decadent dark chocolate truffle fondue for two, paired with two flutes of bubbly. (The special Citysearch dessert is offered as part of the restaurant's Valentine's Day prix fixe menu in lieu of the standard dessert option.)
Maksim-ize your relaxation by taking 15 percent off any service on Saturday, Feb. 13, at this cozy Union Square spa.
Summer may be far away, but you can look like a bronzed beauty anyway, with 14 percent off single tans, packages and products all weekend. Also exciting: free tarot card readings.
Oh how quickly you abandoned that resolution to get into shape in 2010. Well now's your chance to get back on track, with a free mat class at Core Pilates. Use the promo code "CitysearchValentines" to book by phone or redeem online.
The Union Square bowling alley is offering Citysearch customers two special V-Day packages. The Lover's Lane includes 1.5 hours of unlimited bowling along with assorted appetizers, a bottle of wine and shoe rentals for $99.95 per couple (two people per lane). The Singles Party includes all of the above, but with well drinks and bottled beer instead of wine, and costs $49.95 per person (four people per lane). Lanes can be reserved from 5pm to 6:30pm, 7pm to 8:30pm or 9pm to 11:30pm. Note: To get the discount, you must print the coupon on Bowlmor Lanes' Citysearch page and bring it with you.
