Restaurant.com Weekly Promo Offer 300 x 250

Through the end of the day today (5/8), Restaurant.com is offering $25 gift certificates for only $4.25 or $10 for just $1.70 when you enter code MOM at check-out. Perfect timing for Mother’s Day!

If you have never used Restaurant.com, it is a great way to save money on  thousands of restaurants across the nation.  Most restaurants require you to purchase a certain dollar amount of food or a certain number of entrees in order to use the certificate.  I still consider it a great deal.  Plus, the gift certificates do not expire, so you can buy now to save on future restaurant visits.
