Tuck into four eating-out deals without chewing a hole in your pocket
THE half-term eating-out deals might have ended but there are still ways to stop restaurant bills chewing a hole in your finances.
You can get a tasty discount through membership schemes and other ongoing offers.
Tuck into these money- saving tips . . .
WHAT A CARD: If you sign up to a Tastecard, you can get 60 days for £1 and try it out to see how much you save.
If you find you don’t want to keep it, cancel at least a few days before the 60 days is up to avoid it automatically being renewed for £39.99 a year.
ANIMAL MAGIC: When you buy insurance or another qualifying deal at Compare the Market, you can sign up for Meerkat Meals on its app.
This offers 50 per cent off pizzas from Domino’s, Papa Johns and Pizza Hut Deliver when you spend £30.
You can also get money off at pubs and restaurants including Ember Inns, Prezzo and Toby Carvery.
PASS THE SAVINGS: Membership schemes like Kids Pass or Little Bird both offer savings on meals as well as days out.
Little Bird is offering £1 membership for a month, which then renews into £3.49 per month.
You can cancel any time.
Kids Pass also offers a first month for £1, then renews at £4.99 a month until you cancel.
Note that with that deal, you’ll end up paying £59.88 a year if you don’t cancel, and there is cheaper annual membership for £39.99.
ENDLESS FUN: Some meal offers run in term time too.
Kids eat for £1 or £1.50 at Hungry Horse pubs on Mondays, including bank holidays.
At Dunelm’s cafes, children eat free from 3pm when an adult spends £4.
Sizzling Pubs gives youngsters £1 meals with an adult main meal.
Kids eat free at Morrisons cafe when an adult spends £4.49, while at Asda, children eat for £1.
