How this is different

Every deal has a date on it. Not “updated this month” on the whole page — an actual date per deal, showing when we last confirmed it with the restaurant. If it’s gone stale, we say so instead of quietly leaving it up.

The fine print is on the card. Age limit, what the adult has to buy, how many kids go free per adult, whether it’s dine-in only, whether you need a code. All of it, before you get in the car.

We flag the ones that vary. Plenty of chains let each restaurant decide. That’s the main reason a trip goes wrong, so we mark it clearly and tell you what to ask when you ring.
