It's Date Night Again!

Matt and I made a commitment a few months ago, that once a month we will find a way to budget in a sitter and go out just the two of us. Last month we had a ton of fun. Tonight is our reserved date night and we are so excited!

One way we can afford these dinners out is through restaurant.com. They often have specials where you can get 80% off the cost of the coupon. How you can do it is... go to restaurant.com and type in your zip code. Search through the available gift certificates. Each available restaurant offers a $10, $25, $50 or $100 gift certificate. You then buy the $10 gift certificate for $4, the $25 certificate for $10, and so on. So when you are able to use the 80% off code, you can get a $25 gift card for $2! The only catch is, that there is a minimum amount that you can spend (for the $25 gift cards we get, you have to spend $35).

Hot wings - $7
Jalepeno poppers - $7
3 tacos & salad/chips - $10
2 sodas - $4

We got our meal for $12, with leftovers for the next day (minus the $2 for the original gift certificate). And it was PHENOMENAL!!
