109-Year-Old Woman Uses Loophole To Make Restaurant Pay Her To Eat There On Her Birthday

Goals!

http://po.st/KgWXJr

Restaurant offers your age as a % off your birthday meal. She's making them give it to her at 109% ie money in her pocket, and has been doing it since she turned 100 πŸ˜‚

Ignore the fact she brings with her a full table of people paying full price πŸ˜‰

    She definitely needs to be a member of ozbargain.

    Wow, usually in the fine print you have to be accompanied by a Parent. lol

    Probably the cheapest, best advertising. Worldwide social media attention for $1.30 + meal cost/labour.

    Obviously they'd get their money back anyway by the other patrons and tips.

    Store owner == OzBargainer membership too.

    • Not an exact amount that she gets back

      If the meal costs $30, she gets $2.70 back. Though she's probably picking from the $10 menu πŸ˜‚

        Self didn't go overboard with her order. For her celebratory dinner, self ordered some shrimp. Her bill wound up earning her around $1.30.

          a savvy and ethical granny ftw
          She could've ordered tons of food for her friends but that'd be wrong

          good new story considering how many reports out there of the elderly getting scammed >:(

      • Why would you pick from the $10 menu when you get an instant cash back?

        Get the most expensive thing there is

      nonsense! Jesus would turn up at a winery with a 44,000 L water tanker truck nearby, dip his hand into the water, it turns to wine .
      " that'll be $$$ to be deposited right now into My Father's PayID, thank you "

      and he'll have 5,000 people to feed come along as well :P

      • And he'd be sent to a Christmas Island for being a socialist and illegal immigrant

        • i'm sure he'd be granted visa on grounds that he was a self-funded preacher who took 5,000 people out of welfare dependancy, his revolutionary work in medical science, and his strict adherence and assistance in enforcing council zoning laws

        • What are you talking about, Jesus is white.

        • @Diji1:
          Jesus wasn't white: he was a brown-skinned, Middle Eastern Jew…and probably with brown eyes too not blue.

          And speaking of such, why is God always shown as having long white hair? If I was omnipotent I would stop my hair going grey or white as I got older to look more youthful. How old is God by the way?

        • How old is God by the way?

          Well, I think it's the Jewish year 5778, and their calendar started at the time of Creation, so he has to be older than that.

          Maybe God isn't vain? :-)

        • @scottishdave:

          I think Diji1 was being sarcastic.

        • @Deridas:
          So was I ;-)

      Will he get tax exempt status, being a religion?

    How does the tip calculation work for this?

  • Good on the Restaurant for honouring it.

    A win/win really as it gives the Restaurant free (good) publicity.

  • Knew this would have happened in America.
    They always have this weird poorly constructed promotions.
