Buffets are wonderful, especially if you have a large family to feed, and all of them happen to want something different for dinner tonight. HomeTown Buffet, (also called Country Buffet, or Old Country Buffet, depending on where you live), has a way for you to save money when you go to dinner at their buffet. You can get a coupon that will save you $3.00 on dinner at HomeTown Buffet.
HomeTown Buffet is one of the buffets that has something for everyone, no matter how picky an eater they happen to be. They basically serve what I think of as “comfort foods”. In other words, you can find the kinds of food that a majority of people happen to like. At lunch and dinner, you can always find mashed potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and things like that. Breakfast includes scrambled eggs, and strips of bacon, among other choices. My favorite foods and my husband’s favorite foods are not the same, but we can each get something we like at HomeTown Buffet.
Every so often, HomeTown Buffet has coupons that you can use to save money when you go to their Buffet. I signed up with their eClub, and have gotten a few coupons in my email, that I can print out, and take with me to the restaurant. Signing up to that was quick and easy, and I do not feel like I am getting a ton of spam emails from them as a result. That part was simple.
Right now, you can go to the HomeTown Buffet page on Facebook and take the “Your Perfect Plate Quiz”. This quiz is supposed to help you discover your “plate personality”, and what that says about you. Personally, I’m not so sure about the psychology, or the research, behind this particular quiz. It seems to be a trend now for different companies to make something fun for people do to do on Facebook, in order for those people to receive the promised coupon.
In order to take this quiz, you must be logged into your Facebook account. This is because it will ask you to allow it to install an app to your Facebook page. If you don’t allow it to install the app, and to let the app access your information, you can’t take the quiz, and cannot get the coupon. The quiz has ten questions, all multiple choices. When you finish the questions, it shows you what your “plate personality” is, and suggests what kinds of food you might like to try the next time you visit HomeTown Buffet. Next, you must “invite” three friends to take this same quiz. After you have done that, you will be able to print out the coupon that will save you $3.00 on dinner at HomeTown Buffet. The coupon will have your “plate personality” printed on it, and you must use it in December of 2010.
