5 Frugal Ways to Save when Dining Out
One of my favorite things to do after a long day is to go out to eat a nice meal with my family. But the cost of an upscale restaurant does not normally fit into my frugal living budget. I have learned that there are many economical ways to keep the cost down while still enjoying a nice evening out. 1. Look for restaurants that advertise a "early bird" discount - If you are willing to eat early there are many menus that offer a substantial discount on their evening entrees. 2. Look for restaurants that advertise "kids eat free" - If you are taking the kids, many restaurants will offer a free kids meal with each adult meal purchased. 3. Order water to drink. Ask for a lemon or lime wedge if you would like a little added flavor to your water. 4. Take advantage of discount coupons. There are many restaurants that advertise in the newspaper, online, and in local coupon books. Many sit down restaurants will offer a 2 for 1 coupon. 5. Split a dessert. I have found that most desserts are much too large for one person to eat, especially after an entire meal. So order a dessert and ask for 2 spoons. Every restaurant I have been to willingly and happily accomodate this request. Enjoy your next dinner out without the financial stress! |

I went to one Mexican restaurant and the food was on the hot side and I knew from the past that they weren't very prompt at refilling the water. I asked for a whole pitcher of ice water which they furnished. I drank the whole pitcher by myself by the end of the meal. It felt kinda weird as I heard the water sloshing around in my stomach on the walk home.
