the idea girl says
it was over 30 years ago that I walked through the doors of the FIRST Swiss Chalet Restaurant at 285 Geneva Street in St Catharines Ontario Canada. It was built with a Swiss Alp look and the waiters,waitresses had Swiss Costumes on… I cried when they tore it down in 2009. I was excited to find out Jan 2011 they had built another one in it’s place. New, cozy, family style restaurant. I had to take some photos while I cashed in my buy one meal get one free coupons. You see every Christmas we head to the Pen Centre (where there is another Swiss Chalet Restaurant) and buy the festival meal.
A white meat only quarter chicken dinner, with fries, gravy and a bun. You get a little box of chocolates for dessert and inside on the lid is a two for one meal coupon value $7.99. I didn’t notice the coupons the first year they did it and I could kick myself for throwing out the little box… lol
But this year I had two coupons so….
I gave one to my friend Clyde.
He had a 2 for 1 ticket for the movies.. so we swapped.
I went to see the movie “no strings attached” with him.
Not bad.. I got free pop corn and a pop because I had the $2.00 off combo coupon, and he had the bongo coupon 2 for 1 movie specials.
We both bought those $30 gift cards in December at Empire Theatres and were using up those coupons.
If Harry (my significant other) doesn’t like a movie, then I go with our friend Clyde.
Coupons are a wonderful thing.
