Restaurant.com Offer Till June 30: $25 Dining Certificates for $4!!!!!

Another yummy deal: now until June 30th Restaurant.com is offering 60% off the price of their already-discounted dining certificates!!! I've used Restaurant.com in the past and found them a very easy site to navigate, find restaurants in my area (or where friends/family live) and use the certificates. I've been to casual pubs, Moroccan restaurants with belly dancers, and very upscale establishments. The possibilities are divine.

Normally a restaurant.com certificate for $25 at a restaurant costs $10. A $10 certificate is regularly $3. But for the next few days till June 30, you can get 60% OFF their standard price by entering the following promotional code at checkout: freedom

That means you can get a $25 gift certificate for dining out and pay just $4!!! A certificate for $10 will set you back just $1.20. I just tried through checkout and the discounts were applied correctly when I typed freedom in the box marked 'Enter discount code and recalculate total' and then hit the recalculate button.

So if you go to a restaurant and the check comes to $35, you would give them the certificate and $10. If you figure that you've paid just $4 for the certificate, your $35 dining experience cost you just $14!

When using these, remember to be fair to your waiter/waitress and calculate your tip on the original amount, not the after-certificate price. It's only fair.

There are restaurants available virtually everywhere. Many certificates may have conditions but they are usually very reasonable ones. Examples are minimum purchase of two lunch or dinner entrees, or a purchase amount floor. Some exclude price of drinks from being applied against the certificate. But usually the conditions aren't unusually restrictive and let you try that new restaurant you were always wondering about. Or go back to a favorite place just a bit more often.

Even though the offer is good till June 30th, you may want to order as soon as you can. Restaurants can and do put limits on the number of certificates that are sold in any period so sometimes you may see that restaurant.com certificates are sold out for some establishments.

If you enjoy dining out and saving money, this combination is terrific. Pass it on to your friends and family too. Mmm...mmm...good!
