Kids Eat Free
Posted on Wednesday, August 19th, 2009 at 12:04 pm
Reduce the cost of eating out with your family when you choose a restaurant, a promotion or a coupon that entitles your kids to eat free. Now you won’t have to complain about spending $6 for that macaroni and cheese that gets left on the plate.
By the way, most restaurants that offer a kids eat free night usually have it on Tuesday evenings, so try to time your day to eat out then, if you want to take advantage of this.
Some restaurants are very secretive about their kids eat free programs, and the programs may vary according to the store location. The best thing to do in this situation is to simply call ahead and ask. Chik-fil-a is one such restaurant.
Here are some current “Kids Eat Free” deals.
IHOP
Now through September 13th, kids can eat free every night as long as you purchase and adult entree. One free kids meal per adult entree, and you must dine between 4:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m.
Denny’s
At Denny’s time your dinner for Tuesday, and in some locations, Saturday evening. Kids can eat free from 4:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m. with the purchase of an adult entree.
Applebees
Kids can eat free here on Mondays with the purchase of an adult entree. Two adult entrees mean two free kids meals. What I love about this restaurant is that each additional kids meal is only $1. Unlike other promotions, no one needs to be left out. I’ve done this during lunch, so it isn’t just evening hours.
CiCis Pizza
My eldest son wanted to visit a CiCis as soon as he saw the commercials on television. We finally found one when we were out in Lancaster. This buffet style pizza and pasta place offers free meals to anyone who is three and under. They also have some days were older kids eat free, but it varies by location, so you will need to call ahead. Another great thing about this restaurant is that they offer water for free, so you can curb the soft drink expense.
