Welcome again, and good luck! I still have my domain name for my second site, but am doing nothing with it… perhaps your action will inspire me! :)

Welcome a 2nd time, and best of luck with the challenge! 
  
I checked out your site and like what I see. Personally, I do like to dine out, but am trying to do it healther AND trying to save money as I do it.  To the latter point, it looks like you have similar interest in saving money while dining out, so I'll be interested in following your site.

Melissa, Your site looks very fresh. I like the super wide sidebar, and punchy articles. Great stuff.

Dining out each week on $5 a head is a real challenge with today's prices!  Impressive

Welcome again :) 
We struggle with dining out too… Our budget is $25 per week for the two of us though. No fast food places…

Best of luck Melissa. If this site is even half as successful as your other one you are well on your way. I know the ebook is good since I got a pre-read. Hope all goes well.

I really like it. We have a mild addiction to eating out and this could be really helpful. 
  
Good luck!

I have three, but I put almost all of my time into Mom's Plans.  Now, I am trying to grow The Dining Out Challenge.  When that one is on its way, I plan to work more on the third one.

Congrats – based on the concept I am sure it will do well especially in today's economic times. 
  
Just curious Melissa, any reason you don't have a signature box with your links?
