The price isn’t right.

Posted on July 18, 2007 @ 12:01 am by Krissy // Link It

I’ve been doing pretty well in regards to saving money for the last few days. Sean and I added some numbers together and realized that in the last month the two of us have spent over $1,000 going out to dinner. This isn’t cheapy McDonalds kind of purchases, we’re talking $60 a pop kind of meals on a regular basis. So we decided to tighten the purse strings and start eating home more.

I was doing pretty well. I went out the other night with Karen and we both did our grocery shopping for the week. I did have to make a quick run out tonight for items to have with dinner tomorrow night (roasted chicken) but I wound up spending over $70, not quite sure where it all went either. I know that about $12 went to cigarettes so I’m not counting that towards the purchase but it’s hard to believe that milk, butter and some small inexpensive things can all add up to about $60. I think the 4 for $11 on my soda didn’t go through the way it was supposed to, even with the membership card :hrm:

Good luck with cutting back. Hubby and I are going through some financial stuff and cutting back was one of the first things we did. We did not go out to dinner for about 10 months. Now we do lunch on the weekends. It’s a little cheaper and a lot more fun because we aren’t so tired and stressed.
