Eating Out On Less Dollars .. Using a Coupon at One of Our Favorite Pizza Joint

Today before grocery shopping we stopped at one of our favorite pizza places. Pepperonis Pizza Joint in Richmond Texas. We love the Peperoni special with pepperoni, green peppers, black olives, and tomato slices. Crust is thin and sauce is spicy just right.
My coupon savings book had a coupon for 50 percent off a medium pizza. We added to soda's and our total bill with a tip was $12.44.
This is our third eating out with a coupon from the entertainment book.
Cost of Entertainment Book was $30.00, so far we have saved $17.00 eating out. You can now find this same book at half off on the internet. Next year I probably will wait to get it half off.

Whats For dinner How About Some Meat Loaf

What's For Dinner tonight is Meat Loaf with lipton onion soup mix. We really love the taste. Will eat half tonight with baked potatoes and spinach. Tomorrow night will have home made hash with left over baked potatoes and meat loaf. Recipe is at this earlier post if you are interested in trying it http://couponloversunite.blogspot.com/search/label/Recipe%20Collection%20Meatloaf

This is one of our favorite dinners. I only use 1 pound of hamburger. You could easily double the recipe for larger family or freeze one meat loaf for future dinner.
