Weekday Fast n Cheap Eats

. 

So, most of y'all know about  Popeye's Chicken 2 piece (Leg & Thigh)  for .99 on Tuesdays.




 Church's does the same thing

















Captain D's offers 2 pieces of their batter dipped fish for .99 on Tuesday's also.

But what about the other days?

Well, KFC offers an All you can Eat on Mondays for 7.99. To start you off, your first plate includes one piece of chicken, mashed potatoes with gravy, creamy coleslaw, two buttermilk biscuits and a drink. However, I'm told you can customize it to your liking – just no strips or hot wings allowed. The offer is valid at participating locations on Mondays only.

KFC is also offering Chicken Fried Steak Combo for $3.99 on Wednesdays only. The combo meal includes chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes with gravy, creamy coleslaw, a buttermilk biscuit and medium drink . The promo price is valid at participating locations on Wednesdays only. And guess what? It’s for “a limited time.”

Sonic is offering Happy Hour from 2-4 with half off drinks and slushes.








They are also offering half price shakes all day on June 20th.
 

 

  And half price shakes after 8pm all summerr.







 

 Jack in the Box is competing with Sonic by offering half off of all their drinks between 2 and 4. 
 






Del Taco has not just one, but two Taco Nights every week. On Tuesdays, you can get 3 Regular Tacos for $1.09 or 3 Tacos Deluxe for $2.09. Then, on Thursdays, you can get 3 Chicken Soft Tacos for $2.09. The deal is only good from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. 

Celebrate summer and stretch your dollar at Qdoba Mexican Grill. Through July 8, stop by any participating metro Denver or Boulder Qdoba, flash this downloadable Summer Savings Pass and get any regular entrée for just $6 (plus tax). The deal can’t be combined with any other offers. Limit one offer, per diner, per visit. And best of all, this pass can be used again… and again… and again.

Pizza Hut’s $10 pizza deal has returned for the summer, at least for the time being. For only 10 bucks, pizza fans can pick any size pizza they want, select from more than a dozen topping options and choose any crust including Pan Pizza, Hand-Tossed or Thin ‘N Crispy. (For an additional charge, you can get the Stuffed Crust Pizza). There’s no limit. However, it’s carry-out only. It’s a great value, especially if you love lots of toppings on your pizza. Again, the deal is for “a limited time.”

With Pizza Hut’s “any large pizza for $10″ deal back, Papa John’s is offering a large, two-topping pizza for just $10 with promo code 2TLG10. However, if you’re hungrier, you can upgrade to any large pizza (limit five toppings with no double toppings or extra cheese), including specialty pizzas, for $2 more with promo code ALL12.  The discount applies to online orders. If you’re not an “online order” person, the offer is also available in-store with no promo code necessary. The offer is for a limited time, but they’ll probably keep it going as long as Pizza Hut does.

Benihana has two June specials on the menu. The five-course Filet Mignon & Chicken special is $48 for two, and the Seafood Diablo, also five courses, is $20. There are two Benihanas in the metro area: 3295 S. Tamarac Dr., Denver, 303-750-0200, and 515 Zang St., Broomfield, 303-410-0482.

Colorado now has two Steak ‘n Shake locations, thanks to the newly opened restaurant in Sheridan. The “famous for steakburgers” chain lets kids eat for FREE every Saturday and Sunday. Here’s the fine print: You get one FREE Kids Plate for every $8 spent (excluding drinks and shakes.) Plus, the deal is for children 12 & under and dine-in only.
Steak n Shake also offers  a “1/2 Price Happy Hour” twice every weekday – from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. and, for those late night people, 2 a.m. to 4 a.m. During the special hours, all drinks and shakes are 50% off – except for Red Bull.
 8271 S. Quebec St., Centennial; 3502 River Point Pkwy., Sheridan.

Every month, Subway offers a “Featured Footlong” for only $5 - all day long, all month-long. For June, it’s the Oven Roasted Chicken Footlong. The deal is good through June 30. Remember, the specially-priced sub is available at participating locations only.

Eating out for lunch everyday can get expensive, so you might consider Einstein Bros. Bagels‘ new Lunch Value Bundle as a “cheap” option. For $5.99, you get a deli sandwich (turkey, ham, tuna, veggie or chicken salad), chips or potato salad and a medium fountain drink. The offer is for a limited time. It’s always great to wake up to savings. Einstein Bros. Bagels has just introduced its new Breakfast Value Bundle. For $3.99, you get a bagel and schmear, as well as a medium coffee. However, there’s an additional charge for gourmet bagels. The offer is for a limited time.
If you’re looking for an afternoon snack “on the cheap”, Einstein Bros. Bagels is the place to stop. After 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, all bagels are 50% off, including a bagel and schmear. (For those not in the know, “schmear” refers to a thick spread of of cream cheese.) Note that most locations close at 5 p.m., so you only two hours to get the bargain bagels. However, bulk, bucket, catering and pre-orders are excluded from the offer. The discount is available at participating locations only. Plus, the offer is only valid in the Denver and Dallas markets – not nationally.

Mangia! Mangia! After you’ve enjoyed your meal at Maggiano’s Little Italy, you can leave with more than enough food for your next meal. Get a take-home order of one of their nine Pasta Classic entrées for FREE with the purchase of one. Your purchased entrée must be dine-in only. The dishes include spaghetti, lasagna, baked ziti, fettuccine alfredo, eggplant parmesan and more. Plus, your FREE entrée does not have to be the same as your dine-in entrée, so the combinations are aplenty. I like this special because it’s available on the menu all the time. There are only two locations – Denver (500 16th St. at Denver Pavilions, 303-260-7707) and Englewood (7401 S. Clinton St., 303-858-1405.)

I'll keep you updated on more as I come across them. Stay tuned for Kids eat free.
