Maybe it's the mid-week factor. By this point in the week most women have spent three days waking before the rest of the household, throwing together breakfast and schlepping everyone out the door, including themselves.

In Westchase Wednesday's are a great time to partake in discounted ladies' night specials at area bars and restaurants. Here are three places to do just that:

• Grille 54: $5 Grey Goose martinis and $5 Bacardi Mojitos all night. Also win free prizes like International Plaza Gift Cards, free massages and other prizes. 5pm-close. 11935 Sheldon Road in Tampa.
• Applebee's Citrus Park: $6 pitchers of Sangria, and $3 appetizers, plus more specials greet the ladies at this neighborhood mainstay. 5pm-close. 10606 Sheldon Rd in Tampa.
• Catch Twenty Three: It's Wine Down Wednesday at Catch in Westchase. That means ladies can drink all the wine they want for $15 ($20 for men.) Head on over and grab a yummy appetizer while you're there. 10103 Montague Street in Tampa.
