I love using reusable shopping bags…not only are they great for the environment but they hold tons of groceries and are much stronger and hardier than the normal plastic bags. My favorite thing about the reusable bags pictured here is that they are so darn cute!!

Thanks to Hip2Save, 5 lucky readers will each win a set of these Green Bee Reusable Shopping Bags! Each bag carries up to 20 pounds of groceries and has a flat bottom for bottles & cartons.

For those of you who read/entered the Restaurant.com giveaway last week, you will remember that I asked the winner of the giveaway to purchase and use at least one $25 Restaurant.com gift certificate within the next few weeks and then to write up a short blurb about his/her experience. Since the winners from the last 2 weeks have not yet had time to utilize their gift certificates, I will be sharing my experience via a video update filmed last night here in Indiana very shortly (however check out my receipt pictured below from last night’s meal…3 adults ate for less than $15 out of pocket (and that includes a 20% tip before the discount was applied)! WooHoo! Pretty cool, huh?!

Here’s how it all works…

*Click here to find a restaurant in your neighborhood (you can search by zip code or city)

*Browse through the list of participating restaurants in your area (you will be able to view the menu, location, and phone # for each restaurant)

*Pick your restaurant and the appropriate gift certificate amount and then click add to cart; Be sure to read the restaurant’s special instructions before purchasing the certificate; many restaurants require that you make a minimum purchase in order to use the certificate (i.e. minimum purchase of $35 is required to use a $25 restaurant.com certificate), many add 18% gratuity prior to the certificate being applied, some state valid for food or dinner only, and some restrict the days that the certificate can be used (i.e. Monday-Friday only).

*Enter the promo code MEAL into the “Promo Code” box in the shopping cart; your 80% discount will then be applied to your purchase. AND your final cost for a $25 certificate will be just $2! (This code is ONLY valid through today, 4/30, so be sure to make use of it…remember most of the certificates are good for one year from date of purchase!)

*When you complete the transaction for your gift certificate, you will receive a confirmation page and an email that will allow you to customize, print, and/or email the certificate to someone; certificates can be customized with a choice of a background picture, a specific message, and the recipient’s name and you may also opt to receive notification when the recipients receives and opens the email…makes it super easy to send the certificate as a gift to someone special!

Another option, for an even better deal, you can purchase the Dinner of the Month Club. What’s that? It’s a 12 month package that comes with 12 $25 gift certificates and one FREE $50 gift certificate! The total for this package would be $120, but after you type in promo code MEAL—your total will drop down to just $24! Wahoo! That means you’re snagging $350 worth of dining certificates for ONLY $24!

Thanks to Restaurant.com, 1 lucky Hip2Save reader will win a $50 Restaurant.com gift certificate!! Note that this is a $50 gift certificate that you can use to purchase $50 worth of gift certificates!
