The festive season is the best time of year for food lovers. Sometimes you want to skip the heat of the kitchen and eat out. But fine dining, especially during the holidays, is not the easiest on your budget if you aren’t smart with your spending. So, to spread the love, here are 10 tips for eating out on a budget this holiday season!
1. Take advantage of voucher codes
Voucher codes are the easiest way to save money! You can find them online or inside newspapers and magazines. The codes can be pure discounts on meals or special offers, such as getting starters for free. You can generally find voucher codes for big restaurant chains, but even independent stores often run special campaigns.
2. Check for entitlements
If you are a student or a senior, you might be able to get a discount. Certain restaurants might also offer special deals for army veterans, so you want to make sure to use any specific discount you can. You can

Sign up with your favourite restaurants
Most restaurants have a website these day, with plenty asking you to sign up with a special newsletter. Just signing up can provide you with a one-off discount or you can sometimes get special offers delivered to your inbox. If you want to be smart and avoid clogging your e-mail, set up a special e-mail just for your restaurant deals!
4. Eat outside of peak times
You can often find restaurants offering extra discounts or special meal deals for off-peak times. It’s hard to find savings on a Saturday night, as it is the busiest time for restaurants, but on a Tuesday evening the menu might include offers. Mid-week deals or early morning buffets are typically the best times for cheaper meals.
5. Say no to alcohol
One of the biggest expenses on your restaurant bill is often the drinks section, especially when you’ve enjoyed alcoholic drinks. The holiday season has enough opportunities to enjoy a bit of wine or eggnog, so skip the booze at the restaurant to cut down costs.
6. Bring your own

Regret: a feeling of sadness, repentance, or disappointment over something that has happened or been done. Most people feel regret over past mistakes or missed opportunities. In A Christmas Carol, regret is dredged out of the main character through memories and visions of his life and others. Scrooge is taken on a journey with the Three Spirits to reclaim his life and change his ways. As Scrooge is forced to introspect by way of the Spirits, Dickens uses Scrooge’s regret help him see his mistakes and change his ways. The lessons Scrooge must learn in order to change his life are the importance of kindness and generosity and the dangers of greed and indifference.
After a long day in school and studying, every student needs a night off to just relax and enjoy a meal at a restaurant. In this modern time, some aspects of a restaurant can be the deciding choice. Many choose their restaurant of choice based on either those they are with, their personal, cultural appetite, their routine eating habits or their mood. Some of these preferences are similar yet others are the deciding differences. Two common franchise restaurants that pose differences are Applebee’s and Olive Garden. These two restaurants present their differences in environmental and food options causing a choice between them.
With a couple of themes going around in the story of “To Everything There Is a Season”, it can be a little challenging to pick out the main theme. I believe that the theme is, “With time, everything will come”, because it is repeated throughout the whole story. Examples of this would be when the family wanted to spend time with Neil, the little boy/narrator growing up, and even the expected passing of the father. Regarding the family wanting to spend time with Neil, there is a direct quote from “To Everything There Is a Season” that conveys this exact thought, “Their longed-for son and our golden older brother is here at last. He is here with his reddish hair and beard and we can hear his hearty laugh. He will be happy and strong and confident for us all.” As for the little boy/narrator growing up, a
Symbolism In A Christmas Carol There are many examples of symbolism in the book, A Christmas Carol. The book is about a grouchy man named Ebenezer Scrooge. He is mean to pretty much everyone involved in the book until a ghost of his deceased partner, Marley, pays him a visit late at night. The books talks about Marley dragging heavy chains around with him. This is so because he was, as well as Scrooge, a terrible person. He treated people poorly, and in the end paid the price. He came to Scrooge in the dead of night to save him from the same, if not worse,fate. He tells Scrooge that he will be visited by three ghosts on three separate nights. The ghosts that came to visit Scrooge were mean’t to teach Scrooge lessons. The first spirit that came
In "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, Ebenezer Scrooge undergoes a transformation as a result of his encounters with three ghosts and becomes a kind, happy, and generous man. His greedy, cruel, and grumpy demeanor is replaced seemingly overnight, but he doesn’t just wake up and decide to be nice. It takes three Spirits to change his outlook on life - The Ghosts of Christmases Past, Present, and Future. The Ghost of Christmas Past makes Scrooge begin to regret his selfishness, and the Ghost of Christmas Present begins to teach him about others. This second Ghost helps to make him realize that money doesn't buy happiness. The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, however, teaches the most profound lesson of all: unless he changes, no one will care if Scrooge dies. Because of the Ghosts, by Christmas morning Ebenezer Scrooge is a completely different person from the man who went to bed on Christmas Eve.

Many of the customers are regulars who have been coming to the restaurant ever since it first opened, which is why the owners make it a priority to provide a consistent menu with the customer’s favorite entrees. The restaurant strictly serves dinner options, as it opens its doors at 4pm. The menu consists of seafood, pasta, steak, and sandwiches, as well as a daily entrée and soup specials, allowing every customer to find something that appeals to them on the menu.

This results in many customers only being able to come in for special occasions, as the food is too expensive to pay for on a regular basis.

It was three weeks before Christmas when my little sister Emily barged into my room. I was busy preparing gifts for the holidays and also was listening to music. I took an earbud out to listen to what she had to say, but I still was not facing her. She then asked if Santa was real. In my busy state of mind, I nonchalantly said yes and urged her out of my room so I could finish what I was doing. At the time, I did not think much about my response.
