Deliveroo Eat Out to Help Out replacement offer gives you £5 off a takeaway
EAT Out to Help Out has officially ended but Deliveroo is keeping the dinner party going with a £5 discount on takeaway food in September.

Harvester, Pizza Hut, Toby Carvery, and Wetherspoon's are among the chains either extending the discount or running their own offers in September.
Deliveroo has dubbed it's offer Eat In to Help Out in the spirit of the original and has said it hopes to support small restaurants struggling as a result of the pandemic.

More than 16,000 restaurants will be part of the discount scheme.
And it even has the Chancellor Rish Sunak on board, the man who was the brains behind the original scheme.
How to save money eating out
THERE are a number of ways that you can save money when eating out. Here's how:
Discount codes - Check sites like Sun Vouchers or for any discount codes you can use to get money off your order.
Tastecard - This is a members club where you pay to have access to discounts worth up to 50 per cent off at thousands of restaurants. It costs £4.99 a month or £34.99 for the year.
Loyalty schemes - Some restaurants will reward you with discounts or a free meal if you register with their loyalty scheme, such as Nando's where you can collect a stamp with every visit. Some chains like Pizza Express will send you discounts for special occasions, such as your birthday, if you sign up to their newsletter.
Voucher schemes - Look out for voucher schemes offered by third party firms, such as Meerkat Meals. If you compare and buy a product through CompareTheMarket.com then you'll be rewarded with access to the discount scheme. You'll get 2 for 1 meals at certain restaurants through Sunday to Thursday.
Student discounts - If you're in full-time education or a member of the National Students Union then you may be able to get a discount of up to 15 per cent off the bill. It's always worth asking before you place your order.
Mr Sunak said: "This has been an incredibly difficult time for the hospitality sector, both during the lockdown and emerging from it.
"Thousands of restaurants and cafes forced to close during lockdown were thankfully able to continue trading in some way using delivery services such as Deliveroo. For small, independent and local firms this has been a lifeline.
