Simple Ways to Save Money at Your Favorite Fast Food Restaurant

by Alonzo on December 13, 2008

People commonly use coupons at supermarkets to rack up huge savings. But did you know you can use coupons at many of your favorite fast food restaurants as well?

Many fast food restaurants provide coupons on their websites which you can simply print out. The great thing about these internet coupons is that you can continually print them and use them on repeat visits.

As of this writing, Del Taco, for example, is offering a buy 1 taco get 1 free coupon. Hardees is offering a $1 off a thickburger combo meal. Check your favorite fast restaurant website for online coupons.

Several fast food restaurant offer special programs that send you coupons deals by email. Boston Market sends you a coupon for $3 off when you sign up for their free email service. Wendy’s has a similar program called WendysMail where they send you email coupons and promotional offers.

Simply go to your favorite fast food restaurant’s website to see if they offer such a promotions program. The only downside to these programs is that you have to provide your email address. Many people set up a second free email account which they use for programs like these.

Finally, check the back of your fast food receipts. Some fast food places print a toll free number on the back of their receipts that allows you to complete an online survey. Once you complete the survey you’re provided with a coupon code for free food.

Recently, I called the survey phone number located on the back of my Burger King receipt. After completing an automatic survey about my dining experience at the restaurant I was given a code to on my next visit for a free whopper with the purchase of any size fries and drink.
