Get an 80% discount on a meal from Restaurant.com through Aug. 31, 2010. Use coupon code CLEARANCE to get a $25 gift certificate at a restaurant of your choosing for just $2 (the certs start at $10 per). Unclear if the coupon code is case sensitive. There are thousands of restaurants across the country that accept these certificates.

In some cases, the $25 gift certificates costs $15 instead of $10, which means with coupon code CLEARANCE, each one is $3. Pretty manageable, huh? If buying one is not in your budget, win one of two $100 Restaurant.com gift certificates on my money saving blog, BargainBabe.com.

Caveats: one certificate per visit to a restaurant. There are usually minimum spend requirements on food that go above and beyond the $25 gift certificate. Alcohol, tax, and tip do not count toward the minimum. Not valid on previously placed orders and cannot be combined with other promotions or offers.
