Not dining out? Kids eat for free at these places

WASHINGTON - In tight times, some people don't get out to eat as much. But WTOP Saves You Money has ideas on how your kids can eat for free:

At kidsmealdeals.com, just put in your zip code, choose how far away you want to travel, and see your deals.

If you put in local zip codes, you may see deals like:

• One free kid's meal with every adult meal purchased Tuesday and Wednesday after 4 p.m. at the the Outta the Way Café in Derwood.

• One free kid's meal (10 and under) with every adult meal purchased every day of the week at The American Café in Alexandria.

• One free kid's meal with every adult meal purchased on Sundays and Wednesdays at California Tortilla in Fairfax.

• Kids eat free on Thursdays after 5 p.m. at Hard Times Café in Rockville and Herndon.

Kidsmealdeals.com isn't the only Web site listing meal deals. You can try kidseatfree.com and MyKidsEatFree.com.

Since many of the sites rely on user submissions, some may be more comprehensive than others.
