Chattanooga on the Cheap

It might sound trite, but saving a little here and saving a little there does add up. Therefore, it’s important to take advantage of different deals* (the ones you like) before they vanish.

• On March 24 at Ben & Jerry’s, donate a non-perishable item (one per person) and receive a scoop of ice cream for a $1. It’s the best of both worlds. All donations go to the local community food bank and not only do you feel good about giving, but you also get a scoop of your favorite ice cream as well.
• If you can’t get enough of Mexican food  then you’ll like Cancun Mexican Restaurant’s special. On their website, you can print off a "buy one combination and get the second half off (must be of equal or lesser value)" coupon.
• Mention Angus Cafe & Catering’s website and receive 20 percent off your first purchase. Serving breakfast and lunch, Angus Cafe is budget-friendly. Be sure to check out their Cherry Street Special for $5.99.
• Mudpie Restaurant is currently offering a "buy one, get one entree free" Internet special. Now this is only good on Tuesdays, 5 - 8 p.m., and you must print out the coupon to take advantage of this offer.
• Yum, sushi. Oops, I’m sorry, my mind (and appetite) wandered off for a minute. You know, there are a few benefits to eating early and by doing so at Sushi Nabe, it can save you 25 percent. Their early bird special is available Mondays, 4 - 6 p.m., and Tuesdays - Thursdays, 5 - 6 p.m.

*Disclaimer: As press time, these deals are valid. However, things change and restaurants might change their minds. I report the deals and try my best to be accurate.
