There are a lot of ways to save money while eating out. Since this is a very common practice for most Americans, it makes sense that this is a great place to save a few dollars. In fact, I'm guessing with these tips that you can save hundreds of even thousands of dollars per year, depending on how often you eat out.
So how do you do that? Here are a few tips to help get you started. There are a lot of other things you can do, but these are a few of the most simple yet powerful.
The first thing you can do is always drink water. I know, I know- this isn't the most exciting or sexiest thing to drink, especially if its happy hour or something. But think about how much money you usually spend on a drink while eating out. If it's a soda, lemonade or tea, its something like two or three dollars. If you get an alcoholic beverage such as wine or a beer, you're usually looking at four dollars minimum- often up to $8 or $10 per drink!
Let's look at the numbers. If your family of four drinks water instead of soda, that can save you $8 to $10 in one meal. If you eat out just once a week, that's $520 a year saved- not bad! If it's twice a week, that's over $1,000 a year. And if you and your wife normally get a beer instead, that can be about $15 a meal, an extra $250 per year.
Another great way to save money is to just split your entrée with someone. This generally works best with your spouse (as you probably guessed), but this is a great way to save money while eating out. Let's say it saves you about $13 per meal, and your family eats out once a week. That's about $676 saved per year. Combine this with the money you saved from drinking water instead of drinks, and it's easy to save at least one or two thousand dollars per year!
Don't want to split your meal? Another option is to consider getting an appetizer as your dinner or even a kid's meal. I know these might sound funny, but they're generally cheaper and kids meals are smaller portions which is healthier anyways! Even if your friends or family make fun of you, don't worry about it. They're just jealous that you're saving a lot of money and eating healthier.
Speaking of eating healthy, you could also just get several sides. Chances are a side salad and some veggies are going to be much cheaper than a full meal, and this allows the rest of your family to get whatever they want. You get to eat healthy and save money, nobody has to split their plate, and everyone is happy.
Another great way to save money while eating out is to skip dessert! I admit that I love some of the gourmet desserts that restaurants offer, but I don't get it unless it's a special occasion. You can easily pay at least $5 per dessert, and if everyone gets their own that's another $20 on the bill! If you do decide to get one, try to split it with the whole family. You save money and take in a lot fewer calories.
Even though many families don't like to go this route, a great way to save money while eating out is to go to fast food places. Although often less healthy, the trick is to get their healthier options. A side salad and chicken sandwich from McDonald's is just $2. Tear up the chicken and put it in the salad, and you have a fairly healthy meal for just $2! You can easily feed a family of four for less than one person's meal at a restaurant at prices like that.
Finally, plan ahead and check out where to get coupons for the place you want to go. A great place to check out is Restaurant.com. For a small membership fee, you can get great coupons such as a $10 off coupon where you pay $3, or $25 off and you pay just $10. If you use these to save $15 each time you eat out, that's almost $800 per year.
