Cheap food!

A couple of months ago I ordered some gift certificates from Restaurant.com that were on sale.  I got some $10 gift certificates for $2 and some $25 certificates for only $3.  They aren't actual gift cards that come in the mail- they are just certificates that Restaurant.com e-mails to you and you print them from your computer. I've already used a couple of mine and have had no problems.

Well now the deal is even better- now you can get everything for 80% off.  Get $10 certificates for $0.60 and $25 gift certificates for $2!  Just type in SANTA for the coupon code.

So I just picked up 4 more Qdoba $10 gift certificates for .60 each.  That means I'm only paying $2.40 for all 4!  Now there are some purchase requirements that vary by restaurant.  For example, for Qdoba there is a $15 minimum purchase requirement.  So you do have to pay at least $5 out of pocket to use the certificate.  Add that to the .60 out of pocket for the gift certificate and the way I see it, I'm paying $5.60 for $15 worth of food!

So head over to Restaurant.com and just type in your zip code to find out which participating restaurants are near you- there aren't a ton- but I always find 1 or 2 decent ones in whatever city I am looking at.
