More Eat Out Cheap Ideas to Your Favorite Restaurants…

1.  Check your receipts for Restaurant Receipt Surveys!

Just by paying attention to the bottom of my receipts, I’ve noticed that SO many restaurants offer free food or coupons in exchange for your opinion!

Typically, you’ll just need to complete a quick online survey, write down the code given to you after your survey, and return the receipt with the survey code to your restaurant the next time you go out to eat!

Following are a few of the surveys I’ve recently completed for free food or coupons:

• Burger King:  FREE Whopper or Chicken Sandwich with purchase of fries and drink
• Chick-fil-A:  FREE Chicken Sandwich  {no purchase required}
• Dunkin Donuts: FREE Donut with purchase of medium coffee
• Panda Express:  FREE Entree item w/ purchase of 2-entree plate
• Rubio’s:  FREE Drink
• Starbucks: $1.00 off 1 drink
• McDonald’s: Buy 1, Get 1 Free Quarter Pounder with Cheese or Egg McMuffin
• So… go check those receipts!

2.  Follow your Favorite Restaurants on Facebook!

3.  Drink water {skipping the expensive drinks when eating out is a simple way to slash your bill!}

4.  Split meals or eat half of your meal, and take home the rest as leftovers for the next day.

5.  Use Restaurant.com to get discounts at local restaurants.

6.  Ask for Restaurant Punch Cards and Loyalty Cards.  You might be surprised at the number of restaurants that offer punch cards!!  {Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, etc.}
