Reach people who are
choosing where to eat tonight
Cheap Eats Guelph is where locals check before they go out. Almost everyone who lands here arrives mid-decision — searching “food deals guelph today”, “happy hour near me”, “kids eat free thursday”. We'll put your deal in front of them, then show you how many of them headed your way.
You'll know whether it worked
Most local advertising ends with an invoice and a shrug. Every card on this site has a Directions button and a phone number, and we count every tap. At the end of each month you get your numbers — not an impression count, the actual people who acted.

Straight talk about our size
We're not going to tell you we reach “thousands of food lovers”. Cheap Eats Guelph gets around a thousand visits a month from Google, and that number has gone up roughly four and a half times since May. It's a small audience.
What makes it worth $49 is who they are. These aren't people browsing — they're Guelph locals, on their phones, deciding where to eat in the next couple of hours. One filled table a month more than covers it, and unlike a boosted post, you'll be able to see whether it happened.
If the numbers don't work for you, don't buy. Your free listing stays exactly where it is either way.
