Like eating out? Restaurant.com promo

They are having a promo right now, 90% off.  I use this service at least once a month.  You basically buy gift certificates for a discounted price.  the normal deal is buy a $25 GC for $10, but at the end of each month they do an 80% off promo (so its $2 for a $25 GC).  At 90% they are only $1.  This allows us to eat out and not feel guilty.  Most of the participating restaurants are new or smaller places (although here in Chicago there are some well known ones on there - but they are always sold out by the time the promo comes around).  Anyway, enter the promo code "ninety" at check out.   Each restaurant has its own "rules" - some you have to spend at least $35 or $50, some are only good Sun-Thurs, some don't include alcohol.  Just be sure to look at the rules (it states them right under the price when you are picking the restaurants).

  • Oh going to check this out now! Thanks!
  • Thanks! I love restaurant.com

    THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID

    I'm friends with everybody in this office. We're all best friends - I love everybody here. But sometimes your best friends start coming into work late, and start having dentist appointments that aren't dentist appointments. And that's when it is nice to let them know that you can beat them up.

  • Is there a processing fee?  Shipping fee?  Thanks!

     

  • Nope and nope.  Nothing is shipped, they email you the GC (it takes about a day to get the email sometimes).  I just bought $150 worth of GC for $7.50.
  • I bought $100 for the fancy restaurant right below our apartment for $4. Thank you so much!
  • What?!?!?! This website sounds amazing. Too bad there are no restaurants on there within 30 miles of me.
  • I swear, you and I are on the same wavelength. I was just looking through this about 5 minutes before I saw your post. What restaurants did you pick?

  • I saw this yesterday and went to check it out but there are no good restaurants in our area on the website that weren't already sold out.  I figured I would still buy a few for some mediocre places but then the site kept freezing and wouldnt work so no luck for me.  Oh well.

    Lets see...I got three for the curry house.  This place just opened a few months back and is right down the street from where we live.  AMAZING indian food.

    Also Markethouse.  I've been twice and have been happy both times.  Took hubby there for his birthday and he liked it too.  Its a little pricey, but not over the top.

    I also picked a sushi resturant to try, something that started with a P

    What about you?

  • I had never heard of any of the restaurants, but got gift certificates for Demitasse, El Jardin, People, and Machu Picchu. I was pretty close to getting one for Marketplace...maybe I will now that I hear good reviews.

    The service is spotty, but I find if you go in expecting it to be a bit slow, and aren't in a rush, the food is tasty.  They have a garden on the roof where some of their dishes come from, all the rest comes from local markets.  

    Is Machu Picchu up north on Division?  I feel like I've heard of it...

    It's on North Ashland. I'm still not too familiar with Chicago, so I don't know if that's near Division or not. I love Peruvian though, and there's no option like that in central Illinois.
