Tips For Saving Money And Still Getting Delivery

Date July 11, 2011

When ordering takeout or delivery food, consumers are usually charged with the luxury of being able to get the foods from their favorite restaurants, being brought to them without leaving the comfort of their homes. Most, if not all restaurants charge for delivery charges, due to the gas and time which the drivers will spend delivering the food to you. Also, the driver typically expects a tip, adding on to the cost of your favorite dishes.

To save money when ordering delivery, from any restaurant, here are a few tips to save a few bucks on your next delivery order. First, if you have the option, order from the lunch menu, rather than dinner menu (if ordering at night). The lunch menu is typically four to five dollars cheaper than a dinner meal. Another tip is, look for coupons for your favorite take out places. Whenever you order delivery, the restaurant will usually give you a coupon for future deliveries; many people throw them out; if you want to save keep them, they will usually be up to 15 savings on a future order. A final tip is order a “family” meal. If the restaurant offers them, they will usually be much cheaper than individual meals on the menu.
