Coupons, and Bogos and Certs--oh my!

Holy cow--have a steak! They're giving away the farm right now. If you can afford to dine out---it's the time to do it. Every restaurant I see is giving something away for free. If you have the cash to go out to eat, now's the time to try new things, and get a deal while you're doing it.

Here are a few of my latest "Super Deals", and I'm 90% sure these are good anywhere in the country. Unless you've been in a cave the past year, you can find a coupon on just about anything...and almost dine for free in some places.

SuperDeal: Boston Market
Tonight, my husband and I each had a 1/2 chicken, two sides, and cornbread for $8.69. Head into your local Boston Market... not only have they lowered their prices, they are having a meal BOGO (Buy-One-Get-One Free) Coupon. What used to cost us almost $20 with tax 1 year ago, now costs us less than $9 for the two of us together! Can you even make the meal at home this cheap? (Yes..but not by much---you need a rotisserie and 3 hours---I have neither.)

SecretSuperDeal: Stacking your deals online
If you've seen any of my other blogs or articles, you know I'm the "Stacking Queen" when it comes to coupons. So, of course I figured out a way to do this whilst dining. I hope I'm not letting the cat out of the bag too early in this game. Combine your Restaurant.com Certificate with your Reservation on OpenTable.com......and go at specific times through OpenTable when you can earn 1000 points. You only need 2000 points to get your first Reward Coupon for $25.00 on OpenTable.

Restaurants are doing everything they can right now to keep traffic flow through their doors. Take advantage of what they're offering, and enjoy it while it lasts. The economy won't stay this way forever, and they'll be raising prices before you know it.

Have you noticed..the Servers out there have been a lot nicer too? Hmmm....wonder why. Which reminds me...tip on the original price of the bill. It's not the Server's fault you're super savvy. ;)
