HOW TO SAVE WHEN YOU EAT OUT!!!

Good info from of our blogger friends:

 

-----------------------------------------

1. Drink water instead of soda or tea. It saves a ton of money that way.
2. Check for coupons in the paper on Sunday. There are often coupons in there for restaurants. Also check on Coupon Closet HERE for all the restaurant deals.
3. Ask your local restaurants for the “Kids eat FREE night”. Several of them offer that or may be $.99 kids meal night. If you find about about any, let me know and I can set up a page to put all the information for you.
4. Check out daily deal sites for nice restaurant deals. Remember though… only buy those if you will actually save money by going to them.
5. Sign up for the restaurant’s fan club. For example, I love Jersey Mikes so I signed up for their e-mail club. I get coupons  all the time and I even got a free sandwich on my Birthday.
6. Share a plate. Most of the time, one entree is huge. Share it with your kids or your husband and you have just saved 50% off. Then you can splurge and get dessert since you just saved money.
7. Skip the kids meals and have them share a plate. It is normally a better deal for my kids to share a regular meal then for each of them to have a kids meal.

Some of you just don’t go out to eat anymore. I personally still love to go out to eat on occasion, but I have loved these ideas on how to save. I hope they have helped you figure out how to get that restaurant bill down.
