Saying No

My husband and I have been eating out a lot lately because we're doing some renovations to our home, so cooking has not been so convenient for us. We don't usually eat out during the weekdays but for now we save a lot of time and trouble.  When we eat at restaurants, the waiters and waitresses are usually very nice and helpful, making sure we're doing OK all the time and ask if we need anything extra. But how do we say "no" politely to the questions they ask?

Take a look at some common questions and some easy ways to say "no." The answers could be used for all the different situations below. It's really not necessary to think of long and fancy ways to say "no" in order to sound polite, remembering these simple phrases and adding "thanks" or "thank you" is enough! Just keep it simple!
