40% off movie tickets at Odeon


We almost never go to the movies anymore unless it’s Orange Wednesday because it’s just so insanely expensive. So it’s exciting that Odeon has a great offer on at the moment – 40% off tickets until 13th October.

You have two ways to get the discount – either print this voucher and take it to the box office or redeem it when booking online with voucher code Film40.

I had a quick peek at the T&Cs and there isn’t anything to really hold you back apart from the fact that you can’t use the voucher in conjunction with other offers (to be expected). You also can’t use it on Johnny English Reborn.

Right – so go see a movie! And tell me what you saw. I still haven’t seen One Day but I’m DYING to. And I Don’t Know How She Does It even though I’m really annoyed that they’ve set it in the States.

Pizza Express £10 menu offer for four days only


Quick – run to Pizza Express because you only have FOUR DAYS to get this offer!

Oh wait, there will probably be another offer as soon as this one is over…

Just kidding really, I love that you can always count on Pizza Express for a thrifty family meal out or a cheap date night. That said, Pizza Express, if you’re listening, what we’d really fancy is a free piccolo meal with the purchase of a full-price pizza (or something along those lines). That would be REALLY family-friendly, wouldn’t it?

The latest offer is £10 and includes the following. You’ll need a voucher and you can get one here.

Starters: Garlic Bread or Dough Balls

Main Courses: Margherita, American, American Hot La Reine, Fiorentina, Veneziana, Padana, Melanzane, Lasagna, Pollo salad

Drinks: Pinot Grigio (175ml) or Montepulciano (175ml), Small Peroni (330ml), Soft drink

40% Off YO! Sushi Farringdon


I’m truly not sure if this will work because I cut and pasted the image from my email, but feel free to try getting 40% off your meal at YO! Sushi Farringdon if you’re in the neighborhood!

Just don’t go too crazy – last time E and I did an offer like this we still spent way too much because we got so grabby at the conveyor belt, sure the total bill would ring in so low!

Voucher is good until 6th June.

Six Tips for Dining Out on a Budget


Going out to dinner is one of my favourite things. But it can take a seriously massive cut of your budget! So here are a few ideas for saving money on your next date night.

1. Go early. Early in the week and early in the evening restaurants are typically slower and often run specials. At one point we joked that Monday is the new date night because of all of the offers near where E used to live in Fulham. Along the same lines, many restaurants don’t accept vouchers on Fridays and Saturdays. And that leads me to…

2. Look for vouchers. An obvious suggestion, coming from me, but one that is often forgotten. There are a few ways to do this: first, look through the heaps and heaps of restaurant vouchers on sites like VoucherHub.com; second, go directly to a restaurant’s website to find out what promotions they are running; third, sign up for localised group discount sites like Groupola, Groupon and MyCityDeal. Now repeat after me: “Never make a purchase without checking for a voucher”!

3. BYOB. There is the most amazing kebab shop in Notting Hill where I used to live called Fez Mangal. E and I went there way to often because they had just the absolute best chicken shish and lamb beyti. They didn’t serve alcohol and we could pick up a cheap bottle of red from the shop next door and do dinner for under £20, usually with leftovers for lunch.

4. Be loyal. Sign up for a restaurant’s loyalty scheme, facebook fan page and twitter. You’ll always be the first to know about promotions. The Geronimo Club is one of my favourites – I like their pubs and every month they send an email full of lovely offers for discounts on dining and free drinks, plus pub events.

5. Get a card. If you live in London, for a small upfront investment you can get a Taste London or a View card which will give you 50% discounts at restaurants all over town. At the moment, Taste London is £65.95 (but check around for a 20% off voucher!) and a View card will run you £25.95.

6. Read this blog! I write about restaurant deals I’ve tried or heard about from time to time in the Mummy Daddy Date Night posts.

Mummy Daddy Date Night: J


Now that we’re living in West Hampstead we’re struggling not to eat out all the time and try all the new places!

One restaurant we find ourselves drawn to repeatedly–because it’s scrummy and because it’s not breaking our budget–is J. It’s not fancy but I love love love the pizzas and they have a two for one offer on mains (pizza, pasta, etc) in the evenings that makes it a great value. Last Friday we shared a bottle of wine, two filling pizzas and a tiramisu and it came to £34 before tip–not too bad.

My one suggestion is no matter how much you think you like spicy pizza, think twice before ordering J’s version of the American Hot (I can’t remember the name) Vesuvio. They are generous with the Bird’s Eye Chilies and you may find yourself, like I did, in tears!

J’s doesn’t have a website and a quick google search tells me there is at least one other location in Primrose Hill. The West Hampstead one is at 218 West End Lane. Here are some other reviews.

UPDATE: Whilst wandering around in Primrose Hill yesterday evening, E and I discovered that the J there doesn’t offer the two for one special. Shocking!

Two for £10 at Zizzi with Cineworld Unlimited Card


If you’re a Cineworld Unlimited member like E and me, I’ve got good news for you.

With your membership card and this voucher you’ll get two mains for just £10 at Zizzi through 15th November.

Yep, there are some terms (no meals from the pesce and carne section of the menu) and date limitations (Sunday through Thursday only), but hey, they’re giving the discounts they can make the rules.

Let me also just say that if you like to go to the movies at least twice a month and live near a Cineworld, the Unlimited pass will save you money. It is £13.50/month outside of London West End and £16.50/month (we signed on when it was just £15/month though, and I’m wondering when they’ll catch on) if you want to go to Chelsea, Fulham, Haymarket, etc.
