« on: 24 March 2012, 10:39:30 »
we used to go out to a restraunt quite a lot and the owner became a mate lookes after us when we went there gave us something of the bill and  some free drinks,he even invited us to his house and his wedding.now times are hard and we havnt been there for about 4 months and my mrs has seen a half price voucher offer for his place and wants to go.now i dont feel right about this as it seams we would be takeing advantage of him,so what do other people think?

Nothing wrong with giving him a bell though to explain why you haven't been out & about for so long.

I've got a similar situation where I'm good friends of the owners of a restaurant. But, I haven't had the money to go there so I haven't. I will do when I can afford to.  :y

But giving them a call and having a chin wag is never a bad thing anyway.  :y

 i have phoned him a couple of times to keep in touch and he always says just pop in have a drink but then he gets you a drink then he just pops to the toilet or something and before you know it you have a meal in front of you [and he wont take any payment]and i feel iam takeing advantage so thats why i phone
just showed the mrs this and she dosnt agree says hes advertising so if we go we are surporting him makeing the place look busy and so we helping him.
think iam going to have to put my foot down on this one.

I would say that if he's offering the deal then it's OK to use it ;)

At least you could go and have a chinwag, a meal and still give him something instead of him sneaking a meal in front of you FOC ;)

The deal is there to encourage customers. While I see what you mean, and understand fully, you'll be supporting him more by putting money through the till, than not going at all.

...seems to me anyway...?

Give him a call & explain your Missus' outlook on the deal , but that you feel bad about it as he has treated you so well in the past.

Times are hard for everyone at the moment thats why he's doing this promo.   The profit margings in resturants are huge  so he'll still be doing alright at half price

Bit of a tricky one to call though . . . think I'd feel like you  to be honest :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\
