50% Off Your Next Restaurant Meal

[jeffrey]

You can get 50% plus discounts at restaurants through restaurant.com All you have to do is do a free search to see if there are any restaurants that you frequent that are part of the program. If there are, you have instant savings. It's also a good place to get a discount if you are looking to try a new restaurant in your area.

Another excellent place to get a 2 for 1 meal coupons is through your local city
Entertainment Book. They offer a wide variety of restaurant discounts and you can do a free search to see exactly what discounts they offer in your area. These coupon books are also an excellent way to save money when traveling to other cities since you know you will have to dine out. If you will be in a different city for more than a couple of days, these books will more than pay for themselves.

I registered through restaurant.com a few months ago, and they send me e-mail notifications of additional sales about every two weeks. These range from 40-60% off the already reduced price of gift certificates. I only wish they had more restaurants in my area

BE CAREFUL OF THE ENTERTAINMENT BOOK!!! As a hotelier, there is a major loophole for ALL vendors. BLACKOUT DATES! Notice that there are no dates specified in your booklet...EVERY vendor gets to make them up! This means that you can walk into a hotel, restaurant, theme park or any other participant and ask for your discount and they can refuse because "today is a blackout date".

I buy the entertainment book for one reason. Car rentals! I save easily a 100 bucks a year on car rentals using the coupons.

I use these now and then.

I just bought an entertainment book on Monday and the first two coupons i went to use I couldn't... the first one the owner decided she didn't like the entertainment people anymore so refuses to cooperate with them and the second the restaurant was closed (that had to be closed for awhile... the new restaurant had been open for months!).

And I went onto entertainment.com to complain about it... their complaint page doesn't have a link... when you put "send' it doesn't do ANYTHING... i need to get a phone number or something to reach them.

I feel like I've wasted $30... hopefully I'll be able to use some other of the coupons.

Hmmm, I've never had a problem like that with the books. They do have a refund policy - while not 100%, it still will get you back most of your money: http://www.entertainment.com/jsp/con...ng/returns.jsp

Unfortunately, I had already torn out the coupons. So the book is no longer intact, thus I can no longer return it.

There are a few websites and offers that are worth repeating.
they are
1)www.couponmom.com
Use this website to get the best deals by state (enter zipcode)
I even used it for Walgreens and CVS.
2)www.frugalandfree.com
Use the "sundays" (inserts) to locate a coupon: its in a searcheable format. use the edit menu and you wont have to rifle through the ton of coupons you have.
It might not have been updated recently , but it works most of the time.
3)www.edealinfo.com

4)If you apply for the Diamond preffered rewards card from Citi bank, you can get $100.00 gift cards. Unlike the entertainment book , all places accept them.
