Ways Restaurants Make You Spend More Money

Money : Back To Basics

Many restaurants ask their waiters and waitresses to use suggestive selling, to make customers buy more food or higher priced meals. The higher the bill, the bigger tip they receive. On the menu, there are often large drinks, double burgers and extra cheese, which all make the final bill more expensive.

Customers may be forced to wait before they are seated at a table. This will encourage them to buy a drink while they wait, and then have to order another when they eat.

Some places have all you can eat offers. However the starter price will be more expensive and the serving size still smaller. Side dishes and breadsticks may be given so they get too full up to return for more than 1 or 2 extra servings.

Many restaurants have a daily special, but this is often the food that is soon to go out of date so they need to get rid of it. They can also push the price up and encourage people to opt for this meal by advertising it more.
