Free and Discounted Summer Food Offers

Did you know that the average American spent over $3,000 on takeout food in 2015? In 2016, Americans spent over $54 billion on takeout and bar drinks. Meanwhile, they only spent about $52 billion on grocery purchases. That is incredible when you think about it. Americans are more likely to get takeout or dine out instead of cooking at home.

It’s summer. It’s hot. I get it. I have bought so many White Castle sliders in my lifetime that I should be an honorary shareholder. But $3,000 is a lot of money. That can buy you a used car or be a down payment on a vehicle. That is the kind of four-figures that one can use for an investment. I doubt I can persuade you to cut down on takeout. However, there are many free food offers for the summer that you should know about to cut down on takeout expenses.

Bertucci’s Brick Oven & Pasta

Bertucci’s Brick Oven & Pasta is offering a buy-one-get-one-free, or BOGO offer, this summer at participating restaurants. Just buy any large pizza, and you will get a large cheese pizza for free. However, this offer is only for dine-in and carry out, not delivery.
