I often get questions asking how this works or if it’s really a good deal. It is for me. Here’s an example. A local restaurant we have been wanting to try has a $25 gift certificate for $20. The “fine print” says that you have to spend at least $35 and that 18% gratuity is added. Given thecost of food at this location, we would easily be spending $35 anyway.
Here’s a breakdown on pricing:
Buy $25 Restaurant.com certificate – priced at $20
-$16 (80% off code)
Spend $4 + $10 (because our total would be at least $35) and $6.30 for the 18% gratuity – we’re getting a meal that would have been $41.30 with tip for $20.30. That’s basically half price! Sounds like a good deal to me!
