Saving Money with Receipts!

Everyone knows that fast food restaurants provide the most food for your money outside of the grocery store.  You can eat pretty well as a McDonald's "Dollar Menu-aire."  You don't want to eat McDonald's every day, but in a pinch they will do.

I think the Quarter Pounder is called the Royale with Cheese in France

 

Lately, I've been noticing customer satisfaction surveys on the back of fast food sales receipts.  If you take the survey, McDonalds gives you a code to turn your receipt into a coupon.  Currently, McDonald's offers "buy one, get one free" on Quarter Pounders or Egg McMuffins.  If you bring your own bottle of water, you can eat really well or serve two people for the price of one.  It's just one more trick for eating cheap.
