How to Eat Out on a Budget

Sometimes having three kids is very stressful.  There are days when I feel that I do nothing but change diapers, wipe butts, clean and cook all day, just like many other moms of little kids probably do.  Thanks to my husband who gave me the idea, we eat out sometimes to lighten up my load.  I take my whole family to a nice Indian, Japanese or Chinese buffet in the area that costs only $10 per person, AND kids under 5 eat for free at the Indian place!  So when I go without my husband, I only pay $10 + tax and tip for 4 of us :-).  Our kids ALWAYS eat well at the buffets, and we are in and out fast because we don't have to wait for food to be served to us - we just go and get it ourselves as soon as we arrive.  I love buffets!  Here is the link to my favorite, one, I love it so much that I eat there at least once a week: http://favoriteindia.com/
And to make eating out even better - sometimes we get coupons on www.groupon.com or www.livingsocial.com for half off the meal price!
