me hearts a bargain...

Yesterday I got my Travelzoo top 20 newsletter and it had the most FANTASTIC savings in it! I had to share:


Whether you're on vacation or just going out for a nice dinner, meals make up a significant portion of our leisure budget. That's why we were thrilled with this 80% OFF offer from Restaurant.com, allowing us to dine at some of our favorite restaurants for just a fraction of the cost.

Restaurant.com sells gift certificates to select eateries at a discounted price -- the most common $25 gift certificate can regularly be purchased for $10. Through Dec. 25, if you apply the promo code GIVE, you can receive an additional 80% OFF, bringing the final price down to $2 for a $25 gift card.

Other denominations are also available for some restaurants, and certain restrictions apply. With more than 9500 participating restaurants nationwide, you're sure to find a favorite or two near you.

Plus, these certificates make great gifts for the holidays!

Offer expires Dec. 25, 11:59PM PT, but many of the most popular certificates will sell out before the deadline.

To purchase:

1. Click here and enter a zip code or city to find the local participating restaurants
2. Select the gift certificate amount (if more than one choice is available), then add it to your cart
3. Once you're ready to check out, enter the discount code GIVE on the Shopping Cart page
4. After completing the transaction, you'll be taken to a page where you can print your gift certificates

I went ahead about bought 5 gift certificates (spent 10$ and got $125 in GC) for myself and the hubby. You won't fine big chains (TGIF's, Chili's, etc) but you will find really good restaurants in your area. I'm soo excited about this I can't wait to try some new spots out in our area and save a little dough!

That's a great idea. I've seen that Restaurant.com promo but I'll keep it in mind when I'm on the road!
