Default Dine and Discounts Ripoff

Dine and Discounts is a complete ripoff. They state they have a national discounts program with Perkline / Abenity but this is not true. They are illegally representing that they offer discounts with national retailers, restaurants, etc. but they have no such agreement with Perkline / Abenity.

Their discount membership is a sham.

I have a dine and disounts card and logged onto the website after seeing the "ripoff" post! There are tons of national disocunts, local discounts and no mention of whatever Perkline/Abentiy is. I'm positive the "ripoff" poster has Dine and Discounts confused with a different program. I've used the card myself and it's an excellent value that give 80% profit to the kids. I would not have used the website if it wasn't for the "ripoff" post so THANKS!

I love Dine and Discounts. Last year they raised close to $10,000 for my sons Science Olympiad team to go to nationals. I recently signed up again for another local fundraiser. For $25, $20 goes directly to the kids and the organization while I get access to thousands of local and national discounts. On the card I received, there were over $100 of coupons in my area. One that I took advantage of so far was for a FREE car wash (a $24.99 value). I got my initial investment back right away! Its awesome! A great program for the kids!

I agree with wiscmomof3. There is no mention at all of any Perkline/Abenity on the Dine and Discount website. Must be a big mistake. I have used many of the Dine and Discount coupons and discounts without any problems. Its a great program.

Our soccer team has used Dine And Discounts in the West Metro of the Twin Cities on two separate occasions and we have been thrilled with the results. 10 kids raised $3100 & $2500 during our fundraisers. The 80% return to the kids is unmatched and they really had fun selling and working as a team toward a common goal. We had many people happy with the coupons available to them. Salons, Oil Changes, Restaurants, etc. are all available and very easy to redeem at local establishments. I would highly recommend it to you!

Cool Dine and Discounts expanding

The company is currently setting up regional sites such as Dine And Discounts Minnesota Dine And Discounts Omaha Dine And Discounts California Bay Area and many others. No other fundraiser gives back anywhere near 80% that I know of and the online coupons are always being added to as more and more companies become aware of DineAndDiscounts. There have been many successful fundraisers many making over $5000 easily and thats not too hard with the 80% return, meaning for every $25 membership sold $20 goes directly to the fundraiser.
