Restaurant.com Promo Code for 60% Off

Well, it's the start of a new month, so the stock of certificates at Restaurant.com has been replenished. Some of the more popular restaurants which often sell out have got certificates available again. If you want to pick some of these up, you can get 60% off the cost of a certificate by adding coupon code LIST at checkout.

If a restaurant's $25.00 certificate normally costs $10.00 you can get it for $4.00; if the regular price for that restaurant's certificate is $15.00, it's just $6.00 now with the code.

There will doubtless be higher discount later in the month, but sometimes the most popular places have their quota sell out, so you can grab them at these savings. As I've advised before, another strategy is to get a Dinner-of-the-Month club membership when the promo codes are at their highest (usually 80%) and then use one of your vouchers at the start of the month when inventories are replenished.

To check out Restaurant.com, click the link below and remember to add code LIST. It's valid through December 3rd. You need to hit the 'apply' button after you enter the code for the savings to reflect in your cart.

Today, Dec.1st: Quick Charge Car Starter 12-Volt Battery Charging Cable Breaker and Surge Protector $4.99

Today's deal from Daily Steals is an item that could save a lot of aggravation should you ever encounter a deas car battery. Instead of having to find a driver who has jumper cables and then face all the hassles of lining up cars, opening trunks, connecting cables to the battery nodes etc., you can do it much more simply with today's item. And the low cost makes this one almost a no-brainer to carry in each car you drive.

They have a Quick Charge Car Starter 12-Volt Battery Charging Cable Breaker and Surge Protector on sale today for $4.99. It retails for $49.99 so even with a $5.99 shipping cost it's a nice money-saver.

And on the road, especially if this happens on a cold or wet night, this would be a big aggravation saver as well. To start the car that has the dead battery, you plug each end of the cord into the cigarette-lighter for each car (OK, the power charger for those of you too young to remember when they were used for cigarettes). In about 10-15 minutes you have enough power to start your car again.

The 13-foot, 16-AWG cable gives you plenty of length to connect to another car's battery. A built-in circuit-breaker protects against overloads and surges. LED lights eliminate guessing by indicating charging and OK status.
