Nearly Free Greenville Fine Dining

Through January 31 (Saturday), you can go here and get a $25 coupon to be used once at your choice of any of the local Table 301 restaurants, which include:  The Lazy Goat, Soby’s, or Devereaux’s.

Once you have redeemed the coupon (you fill out your address when you use it), you will be handed a coupon to use the next month at a different restaurant from the 3 listed above.  Use it in February, and you be sent another to use in March.  Keep it up each month, and you’ll receive 12 coupons throughout the year.

The only fine print on the coupon?  All certificates valid in the dining room, during dinner service for a minimum of two guests.  Limit one per family.  Valid during the time period stated only. Elsewhere it also mentions that it is appropriate to tip on the pre-coupon price.

The menus and prices are located online at the specific websites listed above, so you can do careful planning to get a free (Lazy Goat; minus tip) or inexpensive fine meal.  Enjoy!

Update: My husband and I went to the Lazy Goat, and it was amazing!  We paid $1 (we had to pay tax) plus the tip.  We got 2 appetizers and a pizza, though we didn’t realize that the appetizers were appetizers and not entrees.)

Special thanks to my friend Kim for sharing and enjoying this amazing deal!  (It was one of, oh… over 2,000 Google reader feeds awaiting me when I returned…I almost missed it!)

10 Cent Wendy’s Jr. Frosty

Through October 31, at Wendy’s, you can purchase a gift book of 10 coupons for a “free Jr. Frosty” for only $1…which equals 10 cents per Frosty.  Coupons are valid 11/01/08 through 02/01/09!

Don’t forget that Friday, October 31, is also the last day to purchase the McDonald’s coupons.  Read more about what they include and where they can be used in Greenville hereUpdated: Since the original post a few weeks ago, I purchased a booklet and learned that it also included 3 coupons for a “free hamburger.”

Save Big with Restaurant.com

If you ever eat out somewhere besides a major nationwide chain, I recommend checking to see if your desired dining location is on Restaurant.com.  Doing so could save you at least $15, even if you only use this service once.  (But usually you’ll save even more…keep reading!)

How It Works

Restaurant.com allows you to purchase gift certificates to local restaurants for at least 60% off. If you are purchasing a gift certificate for the amount of $25.00 (and only paying $10 or less), there is usually a requirement that you spend at least $35.00 on the meal. In other words, you’d have to pay at least $10 + $5 (or other gift certificate amount) for $35.00 worth of food. Not bad for a sit-down restaurant!

Save Even More!

But usually, for at least part of the month, you can save bigger: when they come out with a coupon code.  Currently, the code is DISCOVER, and you get 50% off, SAVE, and you get 70% off! which means you’re getting a $25 certificate for just $5 $3!  You may have noticed the little box on my sidebar that says “current restaurant.com code.”  This is a space where I’ll feature the current restaurant.com coupon code.  Most likely I’ll share it in a post, as well, so you can be update as to when this happens.

Just a few of the locations in Greenville that you can use a restaurant.com certificate:

How to Do It

1. Go to Restaurant.com.

2. Find a restaurant of your choosing.

3. Purchase certificate. (Use the code: SAVE right now.)

4. Print out certificate and take to restaurant.

Additional notes: Certificates are usually good for one year. They have a unique code that the restaurant calls in and enters to ensure that it is only used once. Gratuities may be higher when certificates are used than the normally suggested  percentage (this will be included in the information when you order the certificate). At the beginning of each month, new restaurants are added with a limited number of certificates; but at the end of the month, there is usually some sort of percent off discount because there are fewer choices left to choose from.

That what work’s for me!
