The best deal I know of out there is not available EVERYWHERE, but often enough to be worth mentioning.  TGIFridays sometimes has a cook/chef stationed in the bar-area making free food for happy hour. One day wings, another tacos, another maybe pasta or nachos. You tell him how you want it and if he has it it's yours. He does work for tips and is always  friendly & usually around about 5ish to 6ish.  Make it a habit to find a TGIF where ever you are or end up and call to see if they do the "FREE MUNCHIES FOR HAPPY HOUR" . Many do especially around Virginia.

Texas Roadhouse... if you eat between like 4 and 6, which is, granted, a little early for dinner (but kind of perfect if you hit a movie afterwards) you can get 2 dinners for only 14.99. Choices include 6 oz sirloins, a HUGE baked chicken, chicken salads, porkchops, or bbq chicken... and you still get the bread and salad and baked potatoes :) good deal

Chilli's express bottomless lunch: unlimited soup, salad, and chips & salsa for less than $7. Price goes up after 4 pm, but I've never been charged the higher price. My husband and I go, one gets the unlimited lunch, the other a bowl of soup, add a couple sodas and we're still under $15 and full of warm comfort food.

Filed under: Debt , Personal loans If you're a parent and have grown kids, have you ever paid off a debt of theirs? That's a question that GfK Roper Public Affairs & Media recently posed to 1,004 adults in a survey for CreditCards.com. Two out of five adults, or 42%, said that they had paid off a debt for a grown child at some point. Auto loans topped out the most likely to be paid (40%), with medical debt close behind (37%) and utilities (31%) following. Credit cards were next (30%), followed by student loans (29%) and the mortgage (11%). The entire story can be found here .

Tips for the unemployed to stay sane during...

Filed under: Career , Recession Unemployment isn't a disease that needs a 12-step program, but let's face it, being broke and trying to feel festive around the holidays don't exactly go hand-in-hand. Which is why a California business coach got my attention. Deborah Gallant normally commands big bucks for telling people what they need to do to start up a business or grow the one they already have. She has first-hand experience dealing with professionals who got the axe in the recession during the past year: Her husband was laid off from his big-deal job in finance 16 months ago and is still looking. She also coaches people who are frustrated with their job search. And she does that for free. Heck, she's even helped me for free. Gallant runs a free group hug every Tuesday morning called the Conejo Jewish Support , held at Temple Adat Elohim in Thousand Oaks, CA. You don't have to be Jewish to attend and nobody expects you to actually cry or bare your soul. She arranges free speakers about different aspects of the job search, serves free coffee and has one rule: When you get a job (notice, she says "when" not "if") donate a few bucks from your first paycheck to the coffee kitty. The woman is Santa with a New York accent.Continue reading Tips for the unemployed to stay sane during the next two weeks Tips for the unemployed to stay sane during the next two weeks originally appeared on WalletPop Blog on Mon, 14 Dec 2009 15:15:00 EST.

What can we give Grandma?

Filed under: Shopping , Health My mom lived out the last few years of her life in a nursing home. The question, "What can we give Grandma?" was one I would hear every year about this time. I knew that Mom loved chocolate, playing Bingo and word find puzzles. A rare debilitating disease had robbed her of her fine motor skills and her speech. So much for Bingo and puzzles. With each passing month, it became more and more difficult for her to swallow. So much for giving a box of chocolates. Even without physical limitations, it can be a real chore figuring out what to get our elderly relatives. In my mom's case, I could buy her a new nightie and she loved getting new tops (clothes tend to get lost in a nursing home.) Another good choice seemed to be body wash that the staff would use for her shower and body lotions as the air is often dry during the winter months. Continue reading What can we give Grandma?

Will Jim Powers' BeerCompass point the way...

Filed under: Recession Diaries As a record industry executive and owner of Minty Fresh Records , Chicago's Jim Powers has proved his creativity and eye for talent time and again. He discovered the Cowboy Junkies, was one of the first to sing the praises of Liz Phair, brought the music of the Cardigans to America, and turned Ralph Covert from an aging club rocker into a kids-music phenom. So why is a guy like Powers dabbling in the world of iPhone apps, especially those designed to sniff out beer? It turns out that Powers, a beer connoisseur, found himself intrigued by the possibility of turning a pastime passion into a viable cash cow. And so, BeerCompass was born -- an app that locates suds and pubs anywhere on the planet. WalletPop spoke with Powers not long after BeerCompass went public to find out what inspired his sudsy smart-phone creation, and how his detour into applications has fared financially. WalletPop: Where did the idea for BeerCompass come from? Where were you, how did the idea come to you, and what was your first impulse once the light bulb went off? Powers: I was talking with someone who was looking for marketing ideas for an app they were making for a festival, and I blurted out the idea of a compass dedicated to finding beer ... a "beer compass." I loved the idea and thought the compass had potential, so I made one. Continue reading Will Jim Powers' BeerCompass point the way to money?

Would Google Phone be the next big thing?

Filed under: Technology The Google Phone is real after all. And it is likely to hit the market soon, maybe as early as the beginning of 2010. Over the weekend, Google announced that it handed tons of phones to company employees worldwide for testing and feedback. The news set the Internet agog with Tweets and messages about the phone, with folks labeling it as a "sexy beast" and an "iPhone on beautifying steroids." Engadget has some photos of the new phone, which WalletPop wrote about earlier today. The initial reaction has been a big thumbs up. According to Cory O'Brien, a San Francisco-based blogger, the phone is like an iPhone plus extra screen, scroll wheel and a great touch screen, and which runs on Android. The Wall Street Journal reports that it is called Nexus One, a model manufactured by HTC but which will run on hardware, software and user interface that are designed entirely by Google and will be sold unlocked online. If this is correct, than Google will follow a practice that is rare in the U.S. market. Most phones are sold via a carrier. The unlocked phone will run on the T-Mobile network that follows the GSM protocol. Currently, Google partners with Verizon and T-Mobile and they offer a number of phones that run on Google's Android Operating System. It is unclear how they will view this unlocked offer. But, if this phone can successfully compete against the iPhone that runs only on the AT&T network, they should not have too many complaints.

Is 'default, then rent' the new American...

Filed under: Real Estate Headlines in the mainstream media are often notorious for getting it wrong. But in the case of the recent Wall Street Journal story about how renting is the "new American Dream," the questionable premise could be suggesting that the real estate market is finally approaching a bottom. First, some historical backstory. On Aug. 13, 1979, BusinessWeek ran the now infamous headline "The Death of Equities," proclaiming that "The masses long ago switched from stocks to investments having higher yields and more protection from inflation. Now the pension funds -- the market's last hope -- have won permission to quit stocks and bonds for real estate, futures, gold, and even diamonds. The death of equities looks like an almost permanent condition -- reversible someday, but not soon." That article marked, almost exactly, the bottom in the stock market -- and the beginning of a 20-year long bull run that would provide investors with the highest rate of return in U.S. history. In other words, the BusinessWeek piece couldn't have been more wrong, but actually offered some value as a contrarian indicator. Continue reading Is 'default, then rent' the new American Dream - or sign of a bottom?
