      I just let the girl pay for everything.

            To me it depends on how long you have been dating. If you have been dating for a little while, maybe a month, it shouldn't be too big of a deal unless you go overboard.

              That's fine for you guys that live in metro areas. For those of us in the sticks, chain restaurants on the interstate are 95% of what we have.

                QFT. I wouldn't take anyone on a date there mostly because the food is awful.. Might as well take your date to Denny's or Red Lobster while you're at it.

                No I wouldn't use a coupon, although to be honest I don't use coupons anyway. Too much effort to save 30 cents on some thing.

                  You must not have looked at the link. But if you want to believe quality places don't offer coupons, then be my guest. I am providing you info that disputes your theory but you are still talking reckless.

                    Uh how much effort does it take to just hand someone a little piece of paper that you cut out from the newspaper. Cutting coupons saves OVER TIME, saving money here and there and here and there adds up.

                      Amen. I can go grocery shopping where they double the value & save $15-20 on $80-100 worth of groceries. For me, that is about $250 a year.

                        Not on a 1st date but my girl, hell yeah but most of the restaurants we go to don't really have coupons.

                        In general if you don't use coupons/promotional codes online then you're an idiot. Why would you not want to save 15% for example at Macy's or some other dept. store?

                            Talking reckless? I'm talking from over 25 years of experience in the restaurant business. With that being said, I guess I'll just keep on living life not holding on to the handrail.

                              Not on a 1st date, but by about the month mark or 3rd or 4th date, I'd have no problem saying I have a 2 for 1 to Olive Garden, want to eat there?

                              During that 1st month of dating it costs some major coin. A good dinner and drinks and something afterward will set you back a couple bills. Can't do that all the time. They get to see that about twice, then either its going to be long term or I'm cutting my losses and moving on.

                              But I'm married now, so I don't have to worry about such things.

                              Now, we don't go out to eat unless we have a coupon.

                                As I said, quality places do offer coupons. I just gave you a link to prove it. If you want to ignore that, then it is on you.
