Sources of coupons

Inspired by the thread on the validity and feasibility of coupon usage, what about the sources of coupons? (I'm all about value!) Besides newspaper inserts (normally just a rare chain restaurant like Chevy's), the direct mailer coupon packs that have mostly household savings with a rare restaurant mixed in, maybe the food section of smaller newspapers and the Entertainment Book (which I have never purchased though have used the online plan for a short time), what are other good sources of restaurant coupons. I know this can be a somewhat regional subject. I also know of restaurant.com that provides $25 gift certificates for well under face value (but that isn't really a coupon).

Any other good sources of coupons or discounts for restaurants - perhaps a central site?

    1. it's really hit-or-miss, but i always check the restaurant's web site (if they have one). there are sometimes coupons for off-hours, new menu items, etc.

      also, check out hotel lobbies for coupons, and the chamber of commerce brochure racks.

        1. I see them in the Sunday paper and we also purchase the Entertainment Book.

            1. what is this entertainment book? I'd greatly appreciate some info, because it certainly sounds good!

              Thanks!
