First, local restaurants offered striking writers discounts on plates of pastas and filet mignons. Some--like La Cachette--even waived their valet fees. Now, the retail community has stepped up to the plate to entice strikers with deals. Undefeated (http://www.undftd.com/), the cool sneaker emporium, is currently giving WGA members a 15% discount. For those who have been picketing and pacing regularly, it may be about time for some new kicks.

Other shops offering a little retail therapy include:

The Apple Store at the Grove - 15%

Billion Dollar Brows - 20% off brow shaping and 10% off retail items

Point De Vue Salon - 20% The Shave - 20% off services and 10% off retail items
