Affordable eating out

I know we all like to eat out once in awhile and not always fast food. Here is a list of nicer places that offer cheaper meals.

Restaurants offering affordable eats
Here's who's doing what:

• Chili's. On April 6, the chain will offer a "10 meals for under $7" deal.

• T.G.I. Friday's. This month, Friday's began a promotion featuring eight entrees priced at $9.99 

• Applebee's. Since mid-November, the chain has offered a "2 for $20" special of two entrees and one appetizer.

• Outback Steakhouse. For months, the chain has marketed 15 meals for under $15.

• Texas Roadhouse. The chain recently launched an "Early Dine for $7.99" promo on weekdays. 

• Cheesecake Factory. A "Small Plates and Snacks" menu includes a $4.95 Pizzette, a flat, football-shaped pizza some folks are ordering as a meal

The perfect small gift

Camera
With Easter just around the corner many parents are scrambling for goodies to put into the kids baskets. It does not always have to be candy. Currently at buy.com you can get one of these Magnavox key chain Digital cameras for just $4.99 each while supplies last. (read this as hurry before they are gone) This is a perfect little trinket that the kids will love. There is a limit of 5 per person and shipping is free. If you have an Ebates account, buy it through there so you will earn a rebate on the camera/s.

Ever wonder about warehouse clubs?

Sam

Given the current state of the economy consumers are trying to save anywhere they can. For some that means clipping coupons and for others that means shopping at warehouse clubs.  But who wants to fork over the membership fees for a warehouse club you have never been too?

Occasional you can get a free one day pass at warehouse clubs. That time is now! Go here and look for the Sam's Club ad to fill out your one day pass. Offer expires 3/31/2009.  This will give you the opportunity to see if a membership would be a good idea for your family.
