Chili’s Hack: Sharing a Meal to Save on Kids’ Menus!
We all know eating out with a family can get expensive. But here’s a trick I learned to save money at Chili’s: instead of getting separate kids’ meals, we ordered a single combo meal to share. ordered chicken tenders and mac and cheese with fries for 17.99
For $10.99, we got a side salad, a chicken sandwich, fries, and a drink.
Here’s how we made it work for our family of six:
- The chicken tenders were plenty to split between our 3 kids. Each got 2 tenders and fries
- My daughter enjoyed the mac and cheese with some fries
- We all shared the fries from both orders.
- My wife and i split the 3 for me so she got the salad and some fries and i took some chicken from my sandwich to make hers a chicken salad.
Bonus tip: get the App and enjoy free chips and salsa!!!! Every Visit
By sharing a meal instead of getting three separate kids’ meals (which would have cost $6.95 each), we saved around $8! This is a great way to stretch your budget and still have a satisfying meal at Chili’s.
Checking details
The total cost for the six chicken crispers meal is mentioned as $17, and with the additional items (mac and cheese, fries) the chicken sandwich, salad, fries, and drink 10.99 the total comes to $28 before tax. Including tax, the final amount is $30.62 then your tip!
So, next time you’re wrangling the family for a fun and affordable meal out, remember that even a sit-down restaurant like Chili’s can be budget-friendly. With a little strategic thinking and selective ordering, you can satisfy everyone’s cravings without breaking the bank. Enjoy your delicious and economical Chili’s feast!
