Bargain Bites
The Bargain Bites committee picks a restaurant with good food and reasonable prices. We then negotiate our best deal for a group of approx. 40 SIR and spouses on a Mon. or Tues. evening. An announcement is sent out (to those who have placed their name on the Bargain Bites mailing list) and sign -ups are taken – on a first come basis. Prices vary from $25 to $35 PP (tax/tip included).
Remember- the motto of Bargain Bites – – Good Food! Good Price! Good Friends! And guests are always welcome. This is a really good event to invite friends to introduce them to SIR, but do it early as we often fill up.
**If you would like to be placed on the Bargain Bites e-mail list, just send a note to resmith62@aol.com and say “Place me on the Bargain Bites List”. Oh yes, include your name. You will receive personal e-mail.
In the meantime, if you hear of a place you think we should try, drop an email to Ken or Ron we’ll check it out.
Again, thanks for your interest and wonderful support.

The Bargain Bites event at China Palace was a great success on March 16. A large group of 37 shared a fine family style dinner which included soup, egg rolls, prawns, chicken, pork, beef, broccoli and rice. A great value meal topped off with fortune cookies. Looking forward to your participation at the next dinner at Outback Steakhouse.

On Tuesday September 23rd, 35 SIR members, wives and guests enjoyed a night out at the Outback Restaurant in Pleasant Hill. Everyone seemed to have a good time, particularly when someone else does the cooking. Thanks to Ron Maciak and Linda Gawura for finding this new Bargain Bites Restaurant.
