I was at a buffet restaurant yesterday and like most buffets there is a price plan for kids, adults and seniors. For this one in particular the policy was that any children ages 5 and under get to eat for free. There was one family/group in particular that caught my attention as it seemed like there were about 8 kids in the group and so the only people who had to pay were the two adults.
A little excessive don’t you think? While granted if you actually have that many kids then it is one of those great perks to benefit from, but if not I guess you have to draw the line somewhere when it comes to saving money. I am one of those people who hates to keep taking without giving back in that fashion regardless if I would save a bundle.
A person at my table then made a comment on how they must save a lot of money by doing that. Overall, in the end they may not have been saving that much this way when you think about it as the two people must have paid at least $30 and with that you could buy a whole lot of groceries to feed the whole family for more than a day. The price you pay when dining out.
