LOL ๐ PLEASE PICK ME!! :)Thanks for the opportunity and all the great help!! God bless! ๐

kelly-tillotson@hotmail.com
Kelly, you have been reading forever on here! I love you!
We love Culvers!
Love me some Panera Bread and Pizza! Actually anything Italian… yummmm!
Well u can have Italian all week and eat some of those Totino’s party pizzas on sale at Walmart for $.35@ with coupons! Lol!
(I was hurrying to let Paul know but he already knew. He’s on the ball!!)
Olive Garden is one of my favorite places to eat.
We love to eat out just about anywhere! Chick-fil-a is our favorite fast food and The Spot in Galveston is our favorite casual restaurant.
Panera Bread!
O. Lol. My favorite place to eat is Red Lobster or Shoguns! Or Beck’s Prime or Red Robin… I ate out a lot before becoming a couponer!
Wow! Congrats!
My favorite place is my house. Since we eat a gluten free/casein free diet it’s hard to find food we can eat at a restaurant. So coupons for almond milk, Udi’s bread or other gluten free foods would be nice. Although I live in Minnesota, I love your blog. Thanks for sharing your knowledge on saving money.
Did you see the new Udi one today on coupons?
Favorite place is anywhere with great fajitas and margaritas!
Love buffalo wild wings!
I like them also, I like the blackened chicken salad…
My favorite place to eat is…HOME! Yep, I really love to eat at home but rarely have the time or the knowledge to prepare something delicious at home. I am using your weekly meal plans for ideas and hopefully we’ll be able to eat at home more often.
I looooove going anywhere, but mostly buffets. I know, I know, kinda gross, but the kids don’t have to wait and everyone gets what they want!
My favorite place to eat with my hubby is Firebirds! YUM!!! ๐
I love Cracker Barrel and Bob Evens dont go there alot cause they are more on the expensive side but love to eat there when we can !!!!!
We like Fudruckers
I love Red Lobster, Olive Garden, or heck even McDonald’s as long as I don’t have to cook in the heat and have NO DISHES to wash…lol….love your website.
Chick-fil-a for fast food. Love Mexican. Guadalajara is a favorite!
I love O Charley’s!!! Thanks for the giveaway! Great idea!
I have a bit of a crush on Subway. ๐ Thursday dinner idea: Fajita Casserole. Cook your chicken or steak (or both), onions, peppers, tomatoes, and fajita seasonings together. Add cooked rice and black beans. Layer in casserole dish with tortillas and cheese. Cover and bake until cheese is melted together into a mass of yummy goodness! (about 15 mins) (as with any casserole, ingredients are all optional..you can add or subtract as you wish to make it your own) Enjoy!
Chili’s is our fav!
we love chilis!
We don’t go out to eat very often. It’s a luxury for us right now! That will change soon enough, though ๐ I think our favorite place is either Olive Garden or Outback.
We love Bob Evans!
We love eating out! We always go to buffalo wild wings to watch hockey but Benihana’s & any papa’s restaurants are favorites of ours!
Buffalo Wild Wings!
Definitely love me some Spring Creek BBQ!!!
Sista! I am right there with you! My favorite also!
I love the salad bar at Ruby Tuesday’s!
We LOVE LOVE LOVE Saltgrass Steakhouse. Hubby and I have a New Year’s Eve tradition… order takeout from Saltgrass and eat dinner on the living room rug in front of a fire in the fireplace and talk about our year and our goals for the upcoming year. ๐
My Family loves Outback!!! Would love to win and get a break from cooking everynight. Lol!
We love Cheesecake Factory! Thanks for the opportunity to win a gift card!

We love Chickfila with the kids . On date night, we like to go to Longhorn Steakhouse.
Our favorite place to eat is BBQ Hut in Magnolia. We could eat BBQ everyday!
I could sure use a weeks worth of eating out! We love going to Outback Steakhouse and our local restaurant Lotsa Pasta, Thatza Pizza.
For fast food, we love Chick-fil-a. For a good sit down meal, have to be either Outback or Red Lobster!

Hmmmm I live in Washington and all your Texas restaurants sound so good!! We like to eat out on occasion at Mi Mexico and Boston Pizza!!
This may sound weird but I LOVE going to Luby’s ….. Their macaroni always hits the right spot !!!
We love La Fiesta and Applebee’s!
Well my fav place is macaroni grill!!! It’s just so yummy! I loved it so much I found a copy cat recipe of my fav meal and now I make it at home!! Delicious!
Oh we live in the foodie capital–Portland. It’s too hard to choose our favorite place. But I am currently feeding a fish taco habit at Pepino’s weekly. I’m so glad I found your website–it is by far the most navigable of the couponing blogs.
We love chili’s because they always have something for everyone to eat!!
As a family, our favorite place to eat is any type of pizza place! The kids daddy LOVES pizza. He is in law enforcement so his days off are always whacked, but as soon as our 3 girls hear me say its daddys last day for work they jump up & down and scream PIZZA! haha, we love La’Rosas! As a date night though, we love Olive Garden <3
Freebirds! Thanks for sharing your meal plan! ๐ (and your other 4,999 posts)
We love Chinese and Mexican food. Good Chinese is hard to find near tomball so we usually end up at panda express. As for Mexican, I would never turn down a good plate of steak and chicken fajitas. Does anyone have any good suggestions for great Chinese near Tomball??
I love O Charleyโs ,Chili’s, Outback…really any meal out is a treat! Thanks!
We definitely could use the gift cards, so if we win, it would be amazing!! My favorite place to eat out at is Texas Roadhouse.
Thursday night:
I found this recipe that’s super easy and delicious!
It calls for
4 chicken breasts
1 cup salsa
1/2 cup sour cream
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 taco seasoning packet
This serves six so you will need to plan accordingly.
You take the chicken and place in crock pot, sprinkle taco seasoning. (I use half a packet) then add salsa and soup.
Let it cook on low for 6-8 hours.
Then stir in sour cream.
Wala!!! Done.
Then make some rice to serve with it.
We made it for first time today and it was awesome. We are thinking of putting some diced veggies in it next time.
Our family just lovesTexas Road House.
MAcaroni and Grill is my favorite!
i think my absolute favorite place to eat out would have to be Carrabbas. I don’t get to eat there very much because of the price, and my kids wouldn’t sit still for long in there. LOL. The food is real 100% authentic Italian food. So yummy! Congrats on the 5,000 posts!
I would have to say my favorite place to eat is this hole in the wall Thai Food restaurant (can’t even begin to spell the name, LoL). The dressing they put on their salad is to DIE for~!
What an awesome giveaway! For us its a toss-up between Red Lobster and Olive Garden. We used to eat out all the time (before kids!) but not its limited to special occassions. We always talk about trying something new but then end right back at one of these two places. They are both so yummy, though!!
First of all congrats and I miss the pic of your runs to CVS at mid night does were fun to see… Now my favorite place has to be Cheese Cake Factory not only for dessert but they have killer dishes
We have finally moved and are settling in… I will start going again ๐
Winning this would be great considering I work different hours weekly. One og my favorite places that I got introduced to when I moved here is Los Cucos….. Love their fried avocado with shrimp.
I just want to start with saying Thank You, yur posts have really helped be save and also get some great deals. We LOVE Chick fil a!! We do not eat out as much as we use to. Being a family of 6 makes it much more costly than it use to be especially with the kids getting older.
favorite place pizza hut the kids love it
I love los cucos as well but my true favorite is Mia Bella’s downtown. I’m truly thankful I’ve found your site, the money you have taught me to save has afforded me some things I only dreamed about before. I have a great recipe called Chicken Parisian, it is super easy and everyone who I have ever made it for asked for the recipe plus it is crockpot friendly. I can email it to you if you would like.
Email it over!
We really like Chick-fil-a and basically any other place! We aren’t too picky around here ๐
We LOVE to go to Outback but with 4 growing kiddos, it doesn’t happen that often!! We also love Qdoba and Chipotle. I recently discovered your site – it has really helped me to shop smarter!!!
Lupe Tortilla on all-you-can-eat fajita night!!!!
Also, Tiffany, the checker at CVS SWORE that I was you tonight. She kept asking me “are you Tiffany?” “Is she your sister?” “Wow, you look just like her!” She was super sweet. It made me laugh ๐
Oh, and I eventually asked her “Are you talking about Tiffany Ivanovsky?” And she was like “YES!”
We love Chili’s. Thanks for offering such a great giveaway!
Hi, my family and I love to Eat at The Cheesecake factory, Oh my they have the best Caramel Cheesecake!!!!

Chili’s is my favorite for now, but I love to eat out and have a break so I don’t complain just about any place is fine with me ๐
I really don’t care where we eat as long as I’m not cooking. But I do like Elephant Bar, Cool Hand Lukes, Tahoe Joes, Olive Garden, Chilies and too many others to list. What I wish we had here in Modesto, Ca is really good BBQ. I haven’t good BBQ since I was in Georgia.

P.F. Changs!!! Maybe I’ll get lucky with my birthday is 2 weeks!!
For THURSDAY night:
On Tasty Kitchens site they have a recipe for Hawaiian BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwiches. I made them this past Thursday (how funny) and they are SOOO GOOOD!
5 Ingredients, a slow cooker & dinner is servered. ๐
OMG!!! I just LOVE to cook, and so I mostly always cook, and I cook for my big family…therefore I could use a BREAK! LOL, I enjoy so many places when I do go out so it is hard to pick a fav… I would really appreciate anything. thanks so much for all you do. BTW I made your megan Fox cake and your biscuts both were fabulous…
We love Olive Garden and Applebees but any meal out is awesome!
My 2 year old loves Famous Daves BBQ. We don’t eat out very often, but we usually go there because we can guarentee at least a half hour of silence while he chows down!
Marini’s Empanada House, because everything tastes better in a tiny pie pocket.
Congrats on your 5,000 post. I just recently began to follow your blog and your husband Paul’s blog. I have saved my family a lot of money. Thanks to you. My family and I are not picky. We rarely go out to eat but we love to go to Applebees.
We love to eat at The Elephant Bar, I love there garlic bread! ๐ Also a local Taco place called Tacos Fresco’s they make there corn tortillas right there while they make your food, the quesadillas are the best!!
Just Discovered Daves Famous BBQ. Love the Jalapeno Mac and Cheese.
Absolute all time favorite? Chik-fil-a!
We keep it simple. We love Boston Market and Chick Fil A. Taste of Texas is our favorite sit down restaurant but a little pricey.
My favorite place is Red Robin. I LOVE their food!
We love to eat at Pizza Hut.
My family loves to eat at the 99’s. Sounds funny but the kids love it and I lobe there boneless chicken. YUM
Lupe tortilla and pappasitos…which my phone tried to auto correct to say parasites…no thanks.
We love to eat at
The Olive Garden! and Red Lobster! Yummy!!!
Well, with 4 kids our eating out is normally McDonalds or Sonic. hehe But my favorite place is Red Lobster ๐
WTG on the 5,000th post! You and Paul do amazing things for all of us!!!!
Nebraska has Runza restraunts that are my favorite.
Here’s an idea for Thursday night meal: Chicken Quesadillas….they are super easy, bet your kids would love them.
You will need 4-6 tortilla shells (flour), either canned chicken or dice up some cooked chicken breasts. shredded cheese of choice (mexican or colby jack etc.) and bottled italian dressing.
Use one can of chicken and add 1/2 cup (or more to make it moist) of Italian dressing. Stir to break up the large chicken pieces…. and then spread on a tortilla shell that is placed on your griddle/pan, add some cheese and top with second tortilla shell. Grill one side, then flip it over. Cut into fourths. Serve with salsa or guacomole. I use one can of chicken and one 2 cup bag of cheese and get 2-3 quesidillas depending on how large the tortilla shells are. I usually use the medium to large shells as they fit in my skillet the best.
This is super easy and a great way to use up all that bargain Italian dressing we buy with our coupons! ๐
And if your kids are not big chicken eaters try other ingredients inside: black beans & cheese, just cheese, ground beef & cheese, shredded pork/cheese….of course you need cheese with all of these.
Of course, double the recipe as needed.
I love your website, it is sooo helpful. Chick-fil-a is one of our favorites food to get.
Everyone likes Fudruckers.
My family’s favorite places to eat out is Olive Garden or Chili’s. Their food is so yum! It would be nice for my daughter to get a break from cooking everyday.
Wow, what a great giveaway! We like try different food, but Chick-fil-a is our all time favorite as it’s convenient and tasty! We also like Japanese food, but they’re expensive.
Ohh, I’d say HOME is our favorite place to eat:> Don’t we eat at home the most, and that’s we eat and laugh the most!
We love TGIFridays and Olive Garden!
I love Joe’s Crab Shack because I am a sucker for crab legs! Especially now that I’m pregnant!

I like to get Chinese take-out and eat it at home in my pajamas.
One of our favorite restaraunts in Olive Garden. I love pasta any kind of pasta and could eat it every meal and snack of the day (although my figure wouldn’t agree with that ๐ ). Their salad and bread sticks top it all off. Great food and atmosphere.

Chick fil a.. Easy with the kiddos. We don’t go out to eat much.
Any place! A break from cooking is always good – especially when the weather is SO hot! A fave is Qdoba (just love their burritos with rice) and we just discovered Texas Roadhouse (my son earned some gift certificates from school). Thanks for the giveaway – I just love your website and the hubby’s too! Take care…
We don’t go out to eat a whole lot since we have a child with some health issues but when we do we love Texas Roadhouse (it’s an hour and a half away though) and Subway since it’s the only chain restaurant in the area. We have eaten at a local eatery called the Seafood Shack a few times….hubby and I love their seafood platter and one is enough for the two of us to share…something a family of five has to do a lot of ๐
Tiffany, A favorite restaurant??? I would welcome any night off from cooking. After 30 years of cooking, I am out of ideas. I look forward to your weekly menus. Thank you!

When we eat out, it’s usually at Panera Bread or Papouli’s.
I like Valley Ranch BBQ!
We love eating at Chilis.

I love Outback and Claim Jumper. Great places to eat with great menus!
If you judge my favorite place to eat out by where we go most often, it’s the dollar menu at McDonald’s! Really, though, it’s probably Olive Garden! ๐
We love CPK and Panda Express!
My 4 year old ALWAYS requests Olive Garden! Silly kid!
I love Atlanta bread company and olive garden. I’m so excited because an olive garden just opened 10mins away instead of 30! Hopefully I win so we can go out to our first dinner since I had baby Giada ๐
I like eating at home – it’s cheaper, healthier, and doggone it, I’m a good cook! :o) Okay, I’m a fan of a local restaurant, not a chain, called The Mill House. Fan of a restaurant in FL we accidentally found on vacation called J.Mark’s. We don’t have great chain restaurants in my small town so we travel 50 miles or more for Olive Garden, Chili’s, Texas Roadhouse, Chik-fil-A, and let us not forget Krispy Kreme.
We love Chilis and Olive Garden. Would be cool to be able to eat out for a change!!
well….we don’t get the chance to eat out very often due to our budget, but nothing like going out for a steak at Longhorn’s! Olive garden is good too ๐ Thanks!
We like applebees and our local Mexican place Mexico lindo!
My husbands favorite place is the Olive Garden and since I love him sooooo much i guess then i love it too!
Well honestly, any restaurant is my favorite being that I don’t have to cook!!
Omg My family and myself love to eat at Olive Garden….the breadsticks and salad are our favorites! =)
We like Panera Bread and Olive Garden.
We like Chilli’s we get takeout order every month for date night ๐ The kiddies like Chick fil a.
P.F. Changs, P.F. Changs!! My hubby also loves Famous Daves and it would be great to be able to take him out for Father’s Day!!
Applebees is a favorite for us = )
Like most it appears Olive Garden all the way…..they are child friendly which is such a plus when you have six LOL!
We love Texas Roadhouse, Olive Garden, anywhere really! We do not go out often, so it is a special treat when we do!
love your site!!! keep up the great work…do you have a recipe for those grilled cheese sandwiches…they sound tasty!
Ohhh….we love Pizza Hut! I know homemade is better but for eating out we like them the best!
we love to eat at “outback” and “olive garden”, but mexican is a favorite too. hmmm, now my belly is rumbling! lol.
We love Mexican food (Lupe Tortillas and other local places) and steakhouses (Outback, Saltgrass)!
Thanks!
I am with some other posters, anywhere is good for me but I am an Italian girl and do like Olive Garden (they must have something everyone seems to like them) and Carrabas. But Ican also do Cici’s as well, lol.
Chick-fil-A and Red Lobster!
My husband and I just LOVE Applebee’s. One simple reason is because of their great 2 for $20 deal. We rarely get a chance to eat out due to not having enough money but when we do, we tend to go there alot. Their chicken ceasar salads are amazing!! I’m getting hungry just thinking about it ๐
Our favorite is a local sushi place called Ichiban.
We love Olive Garden too! I also applebee’s, especially since I’m back on weight watchers. It makes it easy to have a night off cooking but still know I can enjoy my dinner without feeling deprived! LOL! Thanks for the giveaway!
Our favorite place to go to is Applebees. LOVE IT THERE, something for the kiddos and something for mamma ๐ thanks for the entry. Love your page.
Thank you for all you do!!! I am new to couponing but your site really helps me. My family loves olive garden, red lobster, arby’s, and chik fil-a. Keep up the great work and congrats on your 5,000th post =)
Chick-Fil-A!!! The play area is always a winner in my book. It is the only way to ear out my 2 year old while we wait on out food.
My favorite close to home restaurant is called the Lucky Dragon, but when we are out & about or have a night out planned we really like to go to the Texas Roadhouse but we don’t go often cuz its a 35 minute drive for us. The only chains close to us are McDonald’s, BK & Wendy’s. The kids don’t mind, but for just 2 of us we like something more!!
Eating out anywhere is always such a treat….but an Awesome Steak is hard to beat! Taste of Texas is our all time favorite Steak Place.
we love Olive Garden you can’t be a healthy dinner of soup salad and breadsticks!!!
your pizza recipe sounds great so we are making that Friday:)
So many! But I’ll say Red Robin.
I just love your site! If my 3yr old picked he would choose chickfila,I myself love olive garden,and hubby would lay down in traffic for saltgrass. But a free dinner anywhere would be a blessing. Thank you for all you have done for my family by sharing your knowledge with us.
I would have to say my favorite place to eat is Red Lobester or anything mexican.
We love Olive Garden, Outback or BJ’s has the best pesto pizza!
