Frugality with money is part art-form and part
research. San Diego hosts a substantial amount of outdoor activities, dining,
boating events, concerts and more. The problem is that all of this costs money.
If you don’t have a fat wallet and have more time than money you may want to
check out some discount sites before making a dining reservation. Stretching
your dollars can help you in the other areas of your life and a few moments of
time are a wise choice.
Companies offer coupons and discounts to attract new
customers. They hope that once the customers make their way into the restaurant
for the first time they can be retained for future visits in addition to future
revenue. A discount offer raises the incentives of purchasing a product and can
be attractive to those who are considering a wide range of alternatives.
One advantage is that dining discounts directly
appeal to those who like to go out and eat on a regular basis. It is a core
demographic group that sees discounts as most appealing. The mentality is, “Well I’m going to go eat anyway so why not
try this restaurant for 30% off?” The discount becomes factored into their
overall decision-making framework and this result in an affirmative choice.
The disadvantage of discount sites is that they
often appeal to either the savvy deal shopper or the hard core food connoisseur.
Discount shoppers will seek only
specials and deals before purchasing while food connoisseurs are unlikely to
frequent the same restaurant many times unless it is a convenient choice when other
options fail. Discounts in online sites are just one option in building a
comprehensive marketing campaign.
