Going out deals

Spotted a top deal or voucher for a day trip or night out? Found a great pint at a great price? Let everyone know. And if your 'night out' is in fact a special MoneySaving night in with a takeaway in front of a film, we're keen to hear those tips too!

Anywhere good for a family of 4 I've got 2 girls age 9 and 5 for good deals swansea within an hour or two drive we have recently been to folly farm oakwood and heatherton so elsewhere would be great if anyone can recommend please thanks in advance
Tesco vouchers at Hungry Horse Deal but not drinks
As with most of these loyalty-voucher schemes there are loads of exclusions. Recently had our 1st Hungry Horse meal and were attracted to the Curry Night deal (£6.50 incl deal drinks). Bought two meals and ordered two pints of deal beers but found the drinks were not included if you use vouchers so had to buy meals at…
Toby's
I visit Toby's several times a year, but lately we seem to be getting less and less meat on our plates, and also it's cut SO thin its tasteless. I'd like to know how I can cut it SO thin, I can't manage that at home.
London 2 for 1
Hi we are taking the kids to London tomorrow for a couple of nights. We usually go via train so can get the days out guide 2 for 1 meals. We aren’t this time. Anyone know what the cheapest overground fare is so I can buy a ticket and access the deal please? Thanks in advance.
What happened to all the eating out deals?
Used to be loads of stuff going on. Prezzo, Nando's, 2-1's 40% off Mains, etc etc. Now there's like literally nothing. 15p off a happy meal? It's terrible out there, I can't imagine going to Pizza express without any deals and just paying full whack on the whole menu.
Poultons Peppa Pig Land
Any 2 for 1 tickets available for the above or fairly cheap. I know I can save a little booking online but its still fairly expensive.
Tastecard Question
We are off to London next week with the kids (2 adults 2 kids). Since we have room only I thought I'd sign up for a free trial with Tastecard but it seems a bit of a pain and also hearing stories of them not being honoured when the bill arrives.. I can't work out if the restaurant is 2 for 1 but max diners 4 - does that…
Money Moral Dilemma: I got paid to eat lunch, but should I own up?
This week's MoneySaver who wants advice asks... I bought two sandwiches for £7.50 in total in my local cafe and paid by contactless. It all seemed to go through fine, but when I checked my account the cafe had actually refunded me £7.50 - meaning they're essentially now £15 down. I was going to go in and explain what…

Are meal deals worth it at Chessington?
Hi, can anyone help me please? I've booked some free tickets for Chessington World of Adventures using tokens in The Sun and now have the opportunity to prebook meal deals at places like Vampire Burger Kitchen, Smokehouse BBQ, pizza and pasta etc, but there don't seem to be any menus on their website. Does anyone know what…
Free Chessington tickets in The Sun
Hi everyone, can somebody help me please? I only saw yesterday that The Sun are offering 2 free tickets for Chessington when you collect vouchers or put codes into their app. I don't know how long this offer has been running, if it's still possible to do or what the easiest and cheapest way to do it is. Can anyone advise…
Changes to Cineworld Unlimited scheme
In preparation for cinema re-opening, Cineworld have re-structured their Unlimited scheme. The scheme now has 4 layers of membership (replacing the previous 2 - London West End or not). It's slightly difficult to understand the logic, here, but it appears that the levels are related to the facilities available at the…
Alton Towers Free Carers tickets when ordering Tesco clubcard tickets
Like many places, Alton Towers does a free carers ticket for disabled people. But if you book through Tesco clubcard, you cant select one. Normally this wouldn't be an issue as Alton Towers can issue you with a carers ticket at the gates, but with COVID, they only have limited numbers so you have to prebook your tickets to…
JUST EAT hideous charges
Hello, I noticed that Just Eat in my area introduced several food shops that traditionally never had delivery facilities. These shops come with a hefty cost of £2 for delivery. A bit pricey considering they do e.g. 20 deliveries in an hour, but hey, you can say it's alright. However, the poor consumers do not know what is…

I bought a 7 course taster menu at the Parkhouse club Cardiff, but unfortunately the club hasn’t traded since February - some time before the before the Wowcher offer Was advertised - and I haven’t been able to redeem the voucher. I got in touch with Wowcher to ask for a refund and they too have been unable to contact the…
The Restaurant Choice vouchers
My voucher was due to run out on 26 Feb. As I haven’t been able to use the voucher I phoned up and they kindly issued a new voucher with a year before expiry.

Vegan 4 toppings Pizza Papa Johns (vegan pepperoni and sausage) £4.99
I don't know if this is just in Bolton and Manchester (and maybe Little Lever) but today I ordered a small pizza to collect for £4.99, usually £7.99. The offer is meant to be £5.99 for collected orders between 11 and 4pm on weekdays. However, when I went to collect they said it was not on the system so they would have to…
