Saving Money at Restaurants
The only thing I want to add is this...fill your own doggie bag...do not send any food back to the kitchen or have your doggie bag prefilled. Everyone needs to watch some of those reality shows on TV about what goes on in restraurants out of the view of customers...

15 Year Wants to Sleep at Her Boyfriend's House?

Burnt Baked Beans in a Pan?
fill with water and put in a dryer sheet or two and let it sit over night. It will take A LOT if not all of the stuff off. At least this works with stuck on food, which is probably part of this problem as well. B. Wilson from West Virginia
