Resturaunt.com Success



I finally used my restaurants.com gift card, and it worked! We went out to dinner for our anniversary a few weeks ago. We got a $42 dinner for $19! Success! We do not eat out often, but if you are planning on eating out restaurants.com could save you some money.

Restaurant.com is a website where you can get resaurant gift certificates for 80%-90% off on a regular basis (with coupon codes). These gift certificates have certain rules you have to follow to use them, so read carefully. Here is how ours worked:

-I bought a $25 gift card for $2.
-RULES: We had to buy a minimum of $35 of food and pay 18% gratuity
-We bought $35 of food + tax & gratuity & paid $17.

I was suprized that it was so simple. We were planning on spending at least $20 anyway, but we were able to get a much better meal for less. I will let you know next time I hear of a coupon code for restaurants.com.

  1. Where did you go to eat? We're from California, but visiting my in-laws here in Rexburg. I have a restaurant.com giftcard I got from mycokerewards.com that I was thinking about using. I saw your blog address on the Broulim's website. I am a crazy coupon lady too! :)

  2. We ate in Idaho Falls at Dixies Diner- it is a cute little restaurant by the mall. You should try it out. :D I am visiting family in California- We kind of swapped! It is nice to meet a fellow couponer- have fun in Rexburg!
