Restaurant.com gift certificates 80% off.

I think I've pretty much made my peace with Restaurant.com now. I was initially suspicious, but I've bought and used a few of these so far with no problems, so I'm going to go ahead and recommend them, as long as you know how the deal works. $25 "gift certificates" are going for $2 and $10 "certificates" for $0.80 with promo code SHARE, through September 22.



Remember, the deal is that you're effectively paying $2 for a $25-off-a-minimum-purchase-of-$__ coupon, usually with some additional restrictions (e.g., alcohol and tip don't count toward the total). The most common minimum purchase is $35, so you'd be paying $12 out of pocket for $35 worth of food ($2 "gift certificate" price + $10 difference). Some of the places have a much higher minimum purchase or other restrictions, so read the terms carefully for a restaurant before you buy!
