I, too, purchased one of the certs and planned to use it in May. Based on this thread, I sent an email to Restaurants.com and asked them "what gives?". They replied that since the cert was not honored, if I provided them with my cert #, the would issue me a Gift Cert that I could then use to purchase a cert at a location of my choosing. Pretty decent of them; I got a $25 cert for $2.
