I see Dines Dollars in My Account overview. What are Dines Dollars?*
Dines Dollars are basically gift certificates towards purchases on SouthFloridaDines.com. You can give Dines Dollars as a gift, receive them as a gift, we may add them to your account because a certificate to a restaurant you purchased went out of business or changed owners and stopped accepting them. We give them out at events and people sometimes win them at events, on the radio, in our e-mail, etc. You can see how much in Dines Dollars you have available and /or add ones you have been given to your account… under My Account / Dines Dollars. This will show you how much in Dines Dollars (credit) you have available and you can view details which will give you a complete history of all Dines Dollars associated with your account. If you have Dines Dollars available in your account when you go to check out, you can apply them at that time.
*You cannot purchase Dines Dollars with Dines Dollars.
**Dines Dollars are applied to the face value. If you have a $40 Dines Dollar, it’s worth $20 cash at checkout. All of our certificates are half price and the same holds true for Dines Dollars.
Do I have to pay a fee to use your service?
No. Simply choose which dining Gift Certificate(s) you would like to purchase. No club to join, no coupon book, no catch.
Can I open more than one account?
No. SouthFloridaDines.com must RESTRICT ACCOUNTS TO ONLY ONE (1) PER HOUSEHOLD. Some fabulous deals our restaurants offer at SouthFloridaDines.com are limited to (1) certificate per household. We must restrict the number of accounts in order for us to be fair to our customers and restaurant owners. Our Website will cross reference your e-mail address, mailing address, and credit card shipping address with all the other customers’ info in our database. If you match Addresses with any of our other customers your order will be canceled, your credit card will be credited back and your account will be suspended. To avoid this from happening, please make sure you have only one account per household, please.
