Restaurant Gift Cards With a Bonus

Still looking for a gift for your favorite food lover? I've noticed some enticing deals at some restaurants around towns relating to gift cards. They'll give you a bonus card with your purchase. So, why would you want a gift card and an additional gift card? Well, you can give the bonus card as a gift to someone else, or you can keep it as a gift to yourself, or you can give the bonus card as a gift and keep the big card for a special occasion, like Valentine's Day! Some of these gift cards are available to purchase online, but if you want to have it before Christmas, you can pop into the restaurant and they will sell you one and give you the bonus card right there.

Warnings: Some of these gift cards are only available for purchase until 12-31-09. Read the restrictions. For example, some must be used by a certain date and some might not allow more than one card to be used at a meal.
