“Do you eat out in the High Country of North Carolina?” Local dad and and Main Street Marketing owner, Ben Cox has asked that question more times than he can count. Because if you do eat out-even just a couple of times a month, then you can save a lot of money with the Main Street Marketing Dining Pass!
The 2008 Watauga Dining Pass features over 67 FREE Meals or Entrées! (buy one, get one free) The card is valid from right now until Dec. 31st, 2008. In addition to the popular Watauga Dining Pass, their are 2 other High Country Dining Passes that include Ashe and Avery Counties. The Dining Passes are on sale for HALF PRICE now! So that means if you eat out once or twice, depending on the restaurant, you’ve paid for the card!
The Ashe/Watauga card features over 36 FREE Meals or entrees and is good until January 31, 2009.
The NEW Avery/Watauga card features 50 FREE meals or entrees and is good until July 31, 2009.
With the kids going back to school, it means running around to sports practices, dance class, Wednesday night church, you name it. At least for us, that also means eating out. Now, I would love to be able to cook my family home-cooked meals every night. I also have visions of packing dinners before I pick the girls up to spend the evening at the dance studio. (Three girls, plus me, in class is a long day) Let me tell you, they’ll be driving themselves to class before that happens!
I’m glad I have the Dining Pass. I’ve taken friends out to eat, grabbed something quick, or gone on a fancy date with my hubby.
Ben has offered three free dining passes for three Mom Squad readers! A Watauga card, an Ashe/Watauga card, and an Avery/Watauga card. Here’s how to enter.
- Visit www.myfreedining.com, and click on the cards to take a look at the restaurants.
- Leave a comment, saying which card you’d like (or all three), and your favorite restaurant on that card.
- If you are a subscriber to the High Country Mom Squad, you get an extra entry. (Click here to subscribe to email updates) Leave a separate comment.
- If you share www.myfreedining.com (or forward this article) by email, blog, Facebook, or MySpace, you get another entry.
- This contest will be open thorough Sunday night, Aug 3. The winner will be announced Monday morning. Three entries per family please.
I’m sure I don’t have to say that my favorite places on the card are Coyote Kitchen, Blimpie, Stick Boy, and Bald Guy Brew!

I like all three but since I dont travel much to Avery or Ashe, I guess I would purchase the Watauga one, and my favorite restraunt is Dos Amigos.

We’d use the Watauaga pass more often than the others- and as for favorite place- Makoto’s would be my kids’ favorite but I’m becoming a big Coyote Kitchen fan.

I love these cards!! Dos Amigos or Makotos would be my pick. Most likely the Watauga card would be used the most.

Oh, I’d LOVE to have the Watauga pass!!! Frankly, I like too many restaurants on there to mention all of them, but we frequent Dos Amigos almost weekly, and I especially love Woodlands, Bald Guy Brew, and Boone Drug. I’d like to try Tupelo’s and Char, as well.

We could use the Watauga or Avery-Watauga pass. We love Tupelo’s, Coyote Kitchen and Dos Amigos, but the kids would pick Cici’s.

Sarah, Thanks for telling everyone about the new site! Thanks to everyone for your warm comments as well. I have personally loved going to restaurants that I thought I would never go to because I had the card and have discovered places I wouldn’t have if not for the card. Thanks to the restaurants for participating!

I’d love all three, but as a Boonie I would really utilize the Watauga one. My favorite place on there is Coyote Kitchen, although the occasional Dan’l Boone Inn visit is ALWAYS delicious too!
