'Family-Style' Restaurants

Take your kids to dinner for cheap! In my area, the popular arches place has 99-cent kids' night for all the regular kids meals, minus the toy, every week! And a family restaurant in town has a sit down atmosphere with the last Thursday of the month being kids' night. All kids meals are 99 cents, including a dessert! My husband and I reserve eating out for a once-a-month treat, but it can cost less than $25 for a family of six! Check the restaurants in your area for kid specials. You might be surprised.
