I love Restaurant.com certificates and have used them for years, as have many of my friends.  They never expire – if restaurants close or leave the program, your voucher gets transformed into a blank for another pick!  It’s a great way set up your meals in advance when you’re on vacation and don’t forget about gifts for out-of-town family and friends.  This promotion is geared towards Mardi Gras, so use promo code BEADS at checkout.

$4 for most $25 Restaurant.com Gift Certificates is not a stock-up price, but if the restaurant you want is always sold out, start thinking about paying a buck or two more and check out the current inventory.  Remember, these certificates never expire, if a restaurant closes or leaves the program, your voucher is automatically returned to your account in blank form, if you want to change to another restaurant (assuming your second choice is available), call customer service and they’re make the change free of charge.  What’s the down side – no dishes?

$2 for most $25 Restaurant.com Gift Certificates! Use code “SWEETIE” at checkout now thru 2/14. To recap for new readers:  These certificates never expire; if you change your mind on a restaurant you call customer service and they will switch to another restaurant (if available) for no charge; if the restaurant closes or otherwise leaves the program, your certificate is automatically converted into a gift (blank) voucher in your account.  A great reason to buy these is that restaurants are nationwide, so wonderful to give as gifts for out-of-town family/friends or for your own road trip or vacation.

I’ve used Restaurant.com for years now, as have many friends (what, you didn’t think I had any?) and we are all agreed on one thing:  These certificates are fantastic.  One caveat, though:  Do not print out a bunch of vouchers and then save them.  If a restaurant leaves the program, that voucher won’t be good.  Instead, only print the vouchers you plan to use within the next week or so.

$4 for most $25 Restaurant.com Gift Certificates! Use code “DATENIGHT” at checkout now thru 2/9.  Not the cheapest rate right now, certainly, but if you’re looking for a voucher to use around Valentine’s Day (probably won’t be able to use it on the exact day), you’ll get the largest selection early in the month.  Wait a few weeks and the price drops a buck or two, but many restaurants have already hit their limits.

Not the cheapest you’ll find these Restaurant.com Gift Certificates, but the earlier in the month, the wider the selection of restaurants – it’s a trade-off.

This is the regular, non-sale price for these Gift Certificates, but I always recommend that you check out what inventory is available, since they reset the first of the month. The limited supply ones will disappear right away, so you have to ask yourself if it’s worth paying an extra $7 for that one special restaurant for that one special occasion or taking a chance it’ll be gone later in the month. Seriously? If you have to think about that before even checking …get those free fries from McDonalds and enjoy.

You can pretty much judge how hungry I am from the size of the banner – just call me Audrey Jr.

And you know the Restaurant.com drill by now:  They never expire; automatically converted to blank gift certificates if restaurant closes or leaves program; you can change your mind on a voucher by calling customer service (in the US!).  What’s the down side?  I’ve never found one and I’ve been using them for years as have many of my friends.

By now you all know the drill, so I’m not gonna repeat. This is not the cheapest price you will ever see on these certificates, but by the time the price drops the selection is gone. And so it goes with these vouchers. My advice is always the same:  Check out what restaurants are available and whether you want to pay the extra buck for the certificate…Yep, that’s the difference in your price, only a buck or two. If you see a restaurant you’re Jonesing for, grab it before it’s gone.
