Restaurant.com Gift Certificates 80% off!



We have used this website for purchasing restaurant gift certificates in the past and really liked them. We used them on vacation and saved alot of money on meals out. I did learn the hard way - you have to read the fine print. Some restaurants have different policies (for example, some include beverages in your total and some do not), so just read it really good before buying. We really wanted to purchase a gift certificate for this amazing breakfast place in Las Vegas, but reading the fine print, it was only good for dinner times. Didn't work for us. So, just watch for that type of thing! Otherwise, this is a fantastic way to be able to continue to have a nice meal out, while sticking to a budget!


The list of participating restaurants is growing and changing, so it's good to check back periodically. It's also a nice way to check out a new place and save money! 

You will basically go purchase a certificate for a preset value. For example: $25. The fine print will tell you what your bill needs to be. So, let's say you buy a $25 gift certificate, your bill might have to be $35, so you are paying the $10 difference out of pocket. The cost of the gift certificate varies, right now with the 80% off sale, you are going to pay about $2. Your print it right from your computer, so you can use it the same day if you want. Or, you have about 12 months from the date of purchase to use it. So, a $35 meal, will run you $10 + $2 (cost of the certificate) and then the tip! Not bad, right? You can also sweeten this deal up by purchasing through Ebates! You earn 15% back on restaurant.com purchases right now through Ebates. If you are new to that site, you also get $5 just for signing up! Good deal!
