Restaurant.com sells discounted gift certificates

December 24th, 2007, 3:00 am · Post a Comment · posted by Nancy Luna, Staff Writer

If you’re still hunting around for gifts today, here’s a nifty Website that might help in a pinch, and save you loads of money.

Restaurant.com sells gift certificates for less than their face value. For example, you can pay $3 for a $10 gift certificate valid at the Anaheim White House or pay $10 for a $25 gift certificate.

Sounds fishy, huh? I asked representatives of the Website how they can afford to offer such steep discounts. Apparently, participating restaurants are willing to offer the markdowns because the site is a relatively cheap way to advertise, and lure new customers.

Besides, have you ever spent just $10 or $25 at the Anaheim White House?

I reviewed the site, and it appeared to have a wide variety of restaurant options in Orange County. Once you buy the gift certificate online, you print it out at home.

So, if you’re desperate for a quick gift today, this one might do the trick.
