Saving Money: Restaurant Weeks Around the South
At first glance, restaurant weeks may seem to be an unconventional way to save money. However, for around $30 (give or take), you can enjoy a three-course meal and use the money left over to offset gas prices. You can even go a step further to make a weekend out of it and stay at a hotel offering gas cards or rebates. Pretty savvy, isn’t it?
With these restaurants weeks, you need to act fast, because everyone loves food and places get book pretty quickly. 
- Over a dozen restaurants are participating in Charlotte, N.C.’s first annual Restaurant Week. Even though the event started on Saturday, July 12, you still might be able to find availability at some restaurants. The week ends on July 18.
