Saving on Dining Out

We know dining out gets expensive, so here are a few tips to keep costs down:

*If you’re going out for a special meal at a fancy restaurant, consider having lunch instead of dinner. Oftentimes, the same dishes are much cheaper, and because restaurants are less busy, you might get better service to boot.

*The time just after work is called happy hour for a reason: good deals always make people happy. Eat early and take advantage of two-for-one deals on appetizers, cheap entrees, or lower-priced drinks.

*If you’re fond of a particular place, sign up for their email newsletter or check their Twitter account. Sometimes restaurants post special deals for their most loyal customers.

*Gigantic portion sizes aren’t healthy, so splitting meals makes sense for your waistline and your wallet. If restaurants charge a fee to split, one person can order an appetizer or salad and simply nibble off their partner’s plate.
