Zaxby’s: Zax Kidz Club

February 15, 2013 by Tracy

When I shared our vehicle coupon holder, I dedicated one slot for our Zaxby’s coupons. As members of the Zax Kidz Club, my children receive coupons for free cookies and Kidz Meals in the mail. The coupons are kept in our van for our visits to Zaxby’s. Yum!

Zax Kidz Club

The Zax Kidz Club is free for children ages 10 and younger. Simply register and wait for the coupons to come in the mail.

My children have received coupons for a free cookie in celebration of Valentine’s Day (with a coupon for a friend), Mother’s Day (with coupons for Mom), and Halloween (with a coupon for a friend). For back-to-school and their birthdays, my children have received free Kidz meal coupons.

Zax Mail Club

Though not as glamorous as the Kidz Club, the Mail Club registration is also free. Shortly after signup, I received a postcard coupon for a free meal deal. Then during my birthday month, I find a coupon for a free nibbler in my mailbox. 🙂

With the option of a quick snack or inexpensive meal, the Zax Kidz Club and Zax Mail Club offer a special outing for families. Registration is free and quick with a great return on investment of time. When the coupons come, file them in your vehicle to use when you visit Zaxby’s. Happy savings while using time wisely with your family!

Question: Do you have a Zaxby’s nearby?
