The restaurants sponsor the gift certificates so no, they will not be unhappy - they use them as a way to promote getting new business. The thought is you will come back again once you try them out.
Note the fine print - typically, you can buy several certificates for any particular restaurant, but you can only use a certificate at the same restaurant ONE TIME a month.
It is a way of advertising w/o spending the big bucks to do expensive airwave and magazine ads . . . and restaurant owners know this is very specifically targeted to the exact demographic they want coming into their establishment. So it is a win-win situation when you purchase a certificate - new business for the restaurant owner and an incentive for the consumer to eat out at reduced prices!

Thanks for your explanation, anifani! I have never heard of this website before so was just wondering. It sounds like a very good web site with lots of good restaurant deals. Thanks those who introduced us the web site and the coupon codes.
