Entertainment Books

Are the entertainment books worth the money??? Also do you buy the book or do you subscribe for a month online and print your coupons as mousesavers suggest???

I had one for my local area and never had any use for it. There are some National coupons (Like $10 off $50 purchase at footlocker or champs can't remember which) , car rental, airplane tickets... but most of the travel ones are things you can find online anyhow without the book. I know you can sign up for a free trial on the site but any coupons expire in like 2 weeks. I don't know about subscribing for a month.

I've purchased the Entertainment Book for the past 5 years and have saved at least 5-10 times the price of the book each time. It all depends on how often you go out to eat in your local area. Going out to some of the finer restaurants at least twice pays for the book itself. I think each individual will see different savings depending on your likes and dislikes. A person who loves to try local pizza parlors, this is a great book to have.
I actually found some of the best Mexican Food in the Washington, DC area through the Entertainment Book.

I would not buy the book for the airline or rental car discounts. Much better deals can be found on-line.

I bought the Orlando book and only used the coupons in it once and the card from it once. For us it wasn't worth it, but I guess it depends on what you're doing and where you are staying. If you stay on International Drive it may be worth it. I think I'm putting mine on Ebay and getting some money out of it since it's hardly used.

I purchased the book for my local area for the sole purpose of using the card to get an Entertainment rate at one of Universal's resorts... well, never did get the rate last year (did get one year before thru a gracious person on this board mailing me thier card), but did get more than my monies worth using the local coupons ...Domino's pizza alone got me my money back
