Enough of
Kitty O'beakerbutitseemstobetoleratedbecauseshesagirl

I'm going for dinner tonight and I have a voucher, I fucking love vouchers for meals but some of my friends seem almost embarrassed to use them?

Where do you stand on the voucher dilemma?
(PsychoChomp, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:25, 259 replies, latest was 15 years ago)
For me depends on the restaurant. I would have no problem at some hole like Bella Pasta
but if it was the Ivy, no chance.

You don't generally get vouchers
for the Ivy

Thanks for pointing that out. I was just using it for effect.
eat a croissant and take 5 points.

Well they don't really do vouchers do they?
I think of it like this, if they offer a voucher then I'll take them up on the offer.
It's like eating from a Prix Fixe menu.
(PsychoChomp, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:31, Reply)
I suppose it depends who I'm with too.
Would you use a voucher on a date? I am pretty sure I wouldn't.

Depends on the date doesn't it.

nope.

(I helped save b3ta! SteveFrench Cardio is for homo's. do you even lift bro?, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:34, Reply)
Of course it does, if you know someone fairly well beforehand what's the problem?
if you're still in the stage of pretending you're richer than you are then you shouldn't.
(PsychoChomp, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:35, Reply)
It would really depend
I wouldn't have a problem with it, unless it was for something really special
(I helped save b3ta! Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:37, Reply)
I dunno, I might with mates, but I don't think I ever would on a date.

(I helped save b3ta! SteveFrench Cardio is for homo's. do you even lift bro?, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:37, Reply)
but then it wouldn't be a "date"
it would just be a normal meal out with a partner, and using vouchers would be the least of your problems
(I helped save b3ta! rachelswipe with a fork, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:41, Reply)
look I find it best to let him just think they are all dates. If it only saves one poor girl, my work will be have been done.

Chompy's dates are normally blind so they wouldn't notice the voucher being handed over.

my friend sam went on a date recently
and the guy chose the restaurant. he was quite adamant on his choice so she went along with it. then he was adamant that she had three courses, even though she only wanted two. and then at the end he whipped out a voucher to pay.

we all howled and told her to dump him immediately. what kind of a pikey pays for a DATE with 2-4-1 VOUCHERS?

i always offer because i am too embarrassed not to
but yeah, any decent bloke won't hear of letting the girl pay on a first date in my opinion. if he does, smile sweetly, hand over your card, never telephone him again!

second date onwards it depends - who earns more; if you don't live locally who has paid to travel; who has ordered more expensive drinks etc etc.
(I helped save b3ta! rachelswipe with a fork, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:36, Reply)
I'd go along with this
On a first date I will always pay, after that you take circumstances and variables into consideration, but I'll always pay at least half, unless it's been stated as a treat for me.

I always offer
and I wouldn't be offended if they accepted, but on a first date I'd think it was strange, and would definitely take it as a 'they're not interested' factor. Not because of the money, but because there's a certain way of behaving that signifies interest

(I helped save b3ta! Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:54, Reply)
and
The more build up there is, the flatter the date will be. You make a real effort and get really excited, it guarantees there will be zero spark. Same principle is true for most nights out actually, maybe it's an expectation thing.

Perhaps all first dates should take place when you have 2 day old hair and gymkit on and only half an hour to spare each other?

Of course the bloke should pay. It's the law. After that first date, I'd expect the other person to offer to go Dutch, but depending on circumstances would depend on if I'd accept that.

This is why I always take a calculator to restaurant dates
so I can accurately apportion the bill depending on the goods and services we have each consumed.

I also take a projected budget report to ensure we keep within the funds I have allocated for the meal.

Either you can afford to go out and eat, or you can't.

Also, for restaurants where 'service charge is included' the poor sap working for minimum wage ends up doing more work for less money (unless you tip over and about the money they've already charged you for service).

I tend to use purple beer vouchers to pay for my food.

I'd use a restuarant so cheap, they'd not be able to offer any sort of promotional voucher and still make money.

I would use the voucher if I was with my friends. I might even share it with them. But if I was on a date I probably wouldn't. Because obviously, I'm a girl so I wouldn't be paying.

I've never used vouchers but that is because I've never had one.
Where does one get these things anyway?
(I helped save b3ta! girlinthehole, Wed 13 Oct 2010, 14:41, Reply)
Search for vouchers
on google. You'll find quite a few. Or join a restaurants booking page, like that toptable.com I said above.

Not many good restaurants round here anyway.

There's only one very good Spanish restaurant in Manchester (and in England, as far as I know) and another quite good, if a bit posh.

if they said that I'd leave after asking why they bothered giving me the menu if they aren't going to make things from it.

on second thought, it wasn't on the menu
I asked if they had them and then he said it'd take 25 minutes
still, you'd think they'd want the business
I was literally the only customer they had in there

I'm always apologetic while using them, and make sure I show them before I reach the till.
Used to work in McDonalds, where it was always clearly stated "Show to till attendant BEFORE placing order", and about 70% of people did, then you had people who didn't realise, and were apologetic (You had to redo the entire order with vouchers), then you had the one or two who were twats about it, tutting while you had to cancel the entire order, then put it back on. 1 meal, easy. 15 meals, bit more of a challenge.
