Tips to Save $$ While Eating Out
1. Do take-out vs delivery or eating in - this way you can save on having to pay a tip
2. Only eat half your meal - If it’s a big meal, only eat half and bring the other half home for lunch the next day. Two meals for the price of one.
3. Share with someone - Maybe you can both get a small salad and then share your entree.
4. Skip the alcohol - You will save a ton if you don’t drink alcohol. In some cases, it can be more expensive than your entree.
5. Find out the weekly specials - Some places have happy hour specials if you come in earlier to eat - check their website.
6. Coupons - An oldy but a goody - flip through the coupons you get in the mail and visit your local eateries.
Any other tip you can think of that I left off the list?

Instead of eating in, you could take note of the tipless restaurants and return to them. Tip does make a big difference!
Funny, I actually used tip 5 tonight… happy hour as dinner. Sushi and calamari!
