***UPDATE***
If you’re having problems using the coupon code “TREATS”- try checking back later in the day. I just hear from Stephanie, at Restaurant.com they got a LOT of traffic today and that could be why some of you aren’t getting to use the code. But rest assured, your 80% off coupon WILL WORK until the end of the day today.
Thanks for all the great emails and feedback on the site– I’m so happy for everyone who can use this code for things like holiday gifts, and making someone else’s day a little brighter.
Gotta thank the Dean Takamine of www.MrCheapStuff.com for this one. Stumbled across Dean’s site about a week ago, and it’s excellent. Well planned and designed– there’s comments from users…even a section where you can see his most popular posts. Dean’s a super cool guy from Hawaii who blogs about freebies online, including this one:
http://www.restaurant .com – a website offers $25 gift certificates to restaurants all over the country for just $10. (Just type in your zip code to find the participating restaurants near you.)
Just type in this code: “TREATS” at checkout and get an extra 80% off your order! (My math skills are pretty weak, but even I know 80% off of 10-bucks is $2!) This coupon offer lasts only until 10/31 so hurry!
There are some restrictions, like what days of the week you can dine– or having to spend a minimum of $35 on the bill. But still! No matter how you slice it, you’ll save yourself some money. The site also has these certificates for stores, like Lobstergrams…which is an online company that sends live lobsters to your loved ones in the mail. Love it!
Have a safe and happy Halloween everybody! I’m going to celebrate this weekend by going bowling with some of the other First News crew, and then to a costume party on Saturday. I haven’t had any time this year to figure out a costume, so I’ll be wearing a plastic World War One helmet I got at the WWI museum!
