Hey it’s all about the economy. http://www.dad2twins.com/2009/05/21/places-where-kids-can-still-eat-free-or-discounted-hey-its-all-about-the-economy/ http://www.dad2twins.com/2009/05/21/places-where-kids-can-still-eat-free-or-discounted-hey-its-all-about-the-economy/#comments Thu, 21 May 2009 17:35:22 +0000 dad2twins http://www.dad2twins.com/?p=794 freekidsmeal-main_full

With the economy in the crapper, we are all having to tighten our belts a little bit. Last night we went to dinner and found out we just missed the kids eat free time window for the Farty Pants Twins. That got me to thinking. Can you smell my brain? Anyway, where else can kids eat free? Here is my list I was able to compile. It is most definitely incomplete, so leave a comment on places you know kids can eat for free or discounted and I will keep the comments open so people can see the list as it grows. At some point in the future I will update the list with all of your comments and links to those restaurants (assuming they have a website.)

So go out there and enjoy a meal out of the house. Just do it wisely.

Denny’s

At some Denny’s restaurants, kids eat free on Tuesday and Saturday nights. You can receive up to two free kids meals for every one regularly priced adults meal. This is perfect for a single mother or father with two kids! The Denny’s deal accommodates kids ages 10 and younger.

Lone Star Steakhouse

Lone Star restaurants embrace an authentic roadhouse theme and serve mesquite-grilled steaks, which are hand-cut fresh daily at each restaurant. Our menu includes “Texas-sized” portions of food, including a variety of combinations that are sure to please. With daily specials for lunch and dinner, a variety of appetizers and desserts and a full-service bar, Lone Star is a destination restaurant.

The Lone Star Steakhouse chain has a special kids eat free deal for the whole day on Tuesdays. Up to two kids can get a free meal off of the kids menu when one adult buys an entrée meal.

Perkins

Perkins is the leading operator and franchisor of nearly 500 full-service family dining restaurants located primarily in the Midwest, Florida and Pennsylvania.

At Perkins Restaurants, which are located all over the country, kids can get a free cookie and free drink with their kids meal.

Baja Fresh

Baja Fresh is excellent, fresh mexican food. Here is waht they say: It takes a lot of hard work and dedication to bring our customers the Baja Fresh® experience. Fresh ingredients, expert preparation, clean cheerful surroundings, genuine smiles, value for the dollar, and prompt courteous service are a tall order to fill…and our people do it, day in and day out.

At our local Baja Fresh, kids eat free on Wednesdays at 4PM. Check with your local Baja Fresh Franchise to find out what deals they offer.

Here are some great links to other websites that show you “Kids eat free” deals.

Coupon Diva’s – Excellent site showing deals by day of the week and restaurant.

Kid’s Eat Free – A great site to search for deals by state.

Kid’s Meal Deals – Another site to find that kid’s meal deal.

Kid’s Eat Free – Once again, a great compilation of deals for kid’s meals.

Good luck and good eating on the cheap.

I have become a bit put off with the whole blogging experience.

I loved blogging. The people I have met and communicated with are my Blogamigos.

So, until sometime in the future, I leave you with this link. http://trustmepeople.blogspot.com/2008/07/bloggers-put-out-or-shut-up.html

Peace!

All of you. I know.

That is why I just heard a rumor that if you call the toy manufacturer, you can rent the toys and then send them back for more toys. And it’s FREE!!!!!

Can anyone verify this? This would be awesome if it is true.

Before you all tell me about existing websites that allow you to rent toys, I know. I’ve heard some people have created these sites and allow you to PAY to rent these toys for a month or two and then send them back and PAY again. But I’m talking about FREE people. If you contact participating toy manufacturers you can supposedly get these toys for free. Oh, and if you are a parent of multiples, then they may even let you keep them. Hell Yes!

So, before I start calling manufacturers, I was wondering if any of you knew about this and just didn’t tell me? Also, do you know which toy companies this works for?

As I get information, I will post a list for everyone to access.

What say you?

I wouldn’t call it blogstipation, but I do need a little fiber in my blog diet. with that being said, I was sitting here thinking of something to write about when I realized I was staring blankly at the screen with my favorite cup of coffee in my hand.

Coffee is my elixir of life. It is what gets me going in the mornings. I love a great cup of coffee and their is nothing more disappointing then a bad cup of coffee. Which, by coincidence, is what I had with my pot de creme dessert last night at a fancy French restaurant. So as I sit here this morning thinking about something to write I realized it was right there in my hand. My morning coffee.

sku_maj_l.jpgI am a big fan of dark, strong, robust coffee. I believe that if you can see through your coffee to the bottom of the cup, it is not strong enough. So my coffee of choice is Peet’s Major Dickason’s blend. It is strong and tasty and I like it. But, I am not wed to it. So, if you are a coffee drinker, tell me your favorite so I can to a little comparison and branch out. I am always game for a new taste challenge.

Oh, and by the way, over on the right side of my blog you will see a new widget from blogrush. This is a pretty cool new tool that can help promote your blog virally around the net.
