Time is almost up for people to use their Dine and Discover program vouchers, with the NSW Government program ending on June 30.
According to Service NSW, more than 32 million vouchers had been issued at a value of $812.5 million, yet only 19 million ($470.9 million) had been redeemed.

Kiama MP Gareth Ward is urging residents to use their vouchers over the coming week.
"My message to the community is simple - don't miss out," he said.
"Check to see if you have any vouchers remaining and spend them now.
"Whether you're going to a restaurant with friends, checking out a new movie or taking the kids to a museum, there is money to be saved."
The vouchers are split into two categories:
- Dining - valid for restaurants, cafes, bars, wineries, pubs or clubs.
- Discover - valid for entertainment and recreation, including cultural institutions, live music, arts venues, and cinemas, along with a wide range of indoor and outdoor activities.
NSW residents aged 18 and over can apply for 6 x $25 vouchers, worth $150 in total.
- 3 x $25 Dine NSW Vouchers to be used for dining in at restaurants, cafés, bars, wineries, pubs and clubs or for takeaway meals.
- 3 x $25 Discover NSW Vouchers to be used for entertainment and recreation, including cultural institutions, live music, and arts venues.
- Vouchers can be accessed through the Service NSW app or printed out to be redeemed manually at participating businesses.

Two additional programs - Stay NSW vouchers ($50 per person) and Parents NSW vouchers (five times $50 vouchers per household), have until October 9 to be used.
