Tucson Restaurant promotions and coupons
The economy hurts local restaurants
The Tucson economy has really impacted local restaurants. As people cut back on expenses, dining out at a local restaurant becomes one of the options often on the chopping block.
To compete against other Tucson fast food restaurants, local restaurant owners are matching promotions with lowered prices, reduced portions and special daily offers.
Tucson coupons for restaurants
There are two main ways to get discount coupons for top Tucson restaurants. Both options offer discounted coupons.
 The most popular source of coupons is the Entertainment Book for Tucson. This annual coupon book has hundreds of discount for half off and two-for-one (2-for-1) deals. The Tucson Entertainment Book is published in November. After the first of the year, the cost of the $35 Tucson coupon book can drop to less than half. Find out more about this month's Tucson Entertainment Book.
Discount coupons for dozens of Tucson restaurants are available from Restaurant.com. This online coupon service lets you buy $25 worth of gift certificates for $10 or less. Some week's promotions reduce that cost to $6 or even $4 for each $25 coupon. Find out this week's deal from Tucson Restaurant.com.
