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!

Groupon Refunds
Before Lockdown I bought a Groupon Voucher for a Restaurant. We could not use it obviously and it subsequently expired. I contacted the restaurant who told me to apply to Groupon for a refund. I emailed and even suggested that I would accept a credit voucher but was denied on the grounds that my voucher had expired. I…
Cineworld vs Vue
I struggle to understand the difference in ticket prices between Cineworld and Vue. My local Cineworld in Didcot will charge me £12.10 for an adult ticket for a 2D movie. If I were to jump in the car and drive about 7 miles I can watch the same file at a Vue for less than half the price at £5.74. How can they possibly…
Free eggs
Pointless post to remove spam phone number from the main board. Why don't the mods remove them? There are no free eggs. Why would there be? If you want free eggs keep chickens or start shoplifting, assuming you don't already shoplift. If you do shoplift then stop as we have to fund the shops losses. This is MSE not ESE.

I told them I won't be here long and if I couldn't use the voucher then, I will not be able to use it later dates. They told me to contact groupon for refund. After around 48…

Catering costs for a party
I’m arranging a surprise party in in our local village hall for my husband and as it’s a surprise for about 100 people I just won’t be able to cater it myself. Ideally I’d like a snack van outside doing rolls & sausage and rolls & egg, baked potatoes, street food etc. Instead of a buffet, or the dreaded trays of lasagne…
