She was never where she got upset if we chose not to use a coupon, and she's really come around in her later years. Now that it's her and dad alone, seems like they're always stopping in somewhere just because they have a hankering for it. Mom of old wouldn't be caught dead paying Red Robin prices, present day Mom LOVES the place [though part of their appeal is their annual birthday free meal coupon].
Worst it would get would be, say, her birthday. . . Where you want to eat on your birthday, mom? Well I have a coupon for . . .
