Chilis Gift Cards

[sunshinecindy]

We are looking at running a special this month on Brinkers gift cards, good at Chilis, Macaroni Grill, on the Border Mexican Grill and Maggianos Little Italy if there is an interest. Does this sound good to anyone?

[wilsonfamily4]

Well it would if they were in my neck of the woods. :) The closest Chilis is an hour away and with gas so high we don't drive too far for dinners anymore.

I think I just may have to veer away from Disney GCs (horrors!!) if there was a special on them. I'm near 3 Chilis, 1 On the Border, and 2 Macaroni Grills. Yeah, I'd probably use them!

[losassok]

I might depending on the special. There is a Chili's and a Macaroni Grill in Lake Buena Vista.
Any thoughts to running a special on Landry's or Rainforest specifically? Those I would definitely go for!!

Hmm, that would be tempting. We LOVE Macaroni Grill!

We do Chilis Curbside to go at least twice a month. We bathe the children, put them in Pj's, place our order, and go get it right before bedtime. The wild ones get relaxed and sleepy on the ride and we enjoy dinner in peace. A few weeks ago they had a special if you bought $25 in GC you got a $5 gc. We did that for end of the year teacher gifts and kept the $5 for ourselves.

Yeah!! There is a new Macaroni Grill at Orlando International Airport...(pre-security) for those that have time before a flight...or upon your arrival, before you head to your resort! :)

Great idea for on the way hom when Magical Express takes you back to the airport so early. But I'm not stopping for anything on my way to the World!

We have Chili's, Macaroni Grill, Maggiano's and On the Border within 20 minutes (Brinker's Home office is in Dallas) ! So yes, it would be a great offer for me!

Let's do this. With that Chilis special that they are having right now (buy a card and get the $5 card free), Cindy has volunteered to go to the stores and get them as people cash out. So you can cash out 25 credits for the $25 card and then she will send the $5 card to you as well. So it's kind of like $5 free. How about that?

[Soccer Princess]

Oh Tricia I like that idea! :) $30 for 25 -- that's my kind of deal! lol

[TXMouseChaser]

Sounds great to me!

I know for certain restaurants when thay do the extra 5.00 it has to be used between certain dates and sometimes at certain locations. Do you know if these 5 dollar cards are like that?

[SunshineGirl]

Yes. The $5 one has to be used by July 31. It does not say any certain locations though.

[maggiec]

I thought I would add, that you can use the extra $5 cards along with any other $5 or $25 cards. Does that make sense? You can redeem as many GC as you want at one time.

[maggiec]

This is very tempting by the way! Will Power! :( Saving for Disney, Saving for Disney, Saving for Disney...

I just posted this. It's 25.00 credits for a $25 Brinkers gift card with a bonus free $5 card. The cards can be used at Chili's, Maggiano's, Romano's, and On the Border. The Bonus card must be used by July 31, 2007, but the $25 card does not.

I'll leave it up for a couple of weeks. Cindy will turn them around pretty quickly so that you have plenty of time to use that $5 bonus before it expires.

It's like a free 5 bucks!

Hey, Cindys in for that one....I love Chilis, always happy hr, two for one. My kind of place.
