It is Tuesday night how many times have you eaten out this week???

We ate out Sunday after church. It cost less than $10 and it put it in my signature line. Since it is an opportunity to spend a little extra time with our friends, we have decided to continue to eat out Sunday after church. However, we will do it as cheaply as possible.

I used my crock pot this weekend to make a big pot of soup. We had soup and sandwiches for dinner and I will be taking soup for lunch. The soup itself is almost fat and preservative free. It's also packed with veggies. This is so much better than stopping at KFC!

So, what have you done to eat at home this week??? Keep up the good work.

Don't forget to update your signature so we all know how great you're doing!

So far we haven't eaten out at all. We just paid our rent and we are completely broke until Friday. I'm struggling to keep our milk lasting until then. I can not wait until we actually have some sort of savings. Not that we'll be eating out when we get one but it'll be nice to have some cushion.

I've just been making some cheap meals this week. Cheap but yummy!

Okay, so it's only the 4th but it sounds good & it makes me feel accomplished LOL.

I ate out yesterday for lunch. I had to take my mother to the dr. and so she paid. It was only $3.52 for me to eat though.

Good job, guys!

Keep up the good work!

I brought my home-made soup and crackers with me to work today. It took me about 2 minutes to get my lunch together. I was actually 15 minutes early to work. I brought water, soup, crackers, peanut butter.
:cheer:

this is a great challenge. I"ll have to join in. We haven't eaten out this year yet.

Nope not yet! I'm saving my pennies for Saturday

We received theater tickets and an overnight stay in a hotel in another city on Saturday for Christmas. It will be the first Sat. husband has had off since pre Thanksgiving! Oh boy! (Christmas time is the busy time of year for him, so now things will slow down a bit)

Zero, Zilch, Nada, none!
I made a big pot of soup and Michael and I took that for lunch. Alex took and sanny.

We haven't eaten out at all this week, although I was tempted! Dh offered to take me out for my birthday dinner last night. I made chicken in the crockpot instead. We don't usually eat out, though, so it's not that big of a deal, but I have to admit, the more pregnant I get, the more tired I get...especially being back at work this week after a week off. It is very tempting to have someone else do the cooking!

None, but I love it when we go out on payday to Joey's Only which is a fish and chip place, or out to McDonalds for their Burger Du Jour for a treat.

We go out about once a month or so, not every payday.

We ate dinner at my Mom's on sunday. No eating out so far.
Not eating much anywhere, we have been sick. Lets see how good I do when I am feeling better.

We had breakfast at McDonald's yesterday. It was the last day of vacation for everyone. We may eat out on Friday after a Dr appt., but we have a GC for that.
