    Default Not So Frugal.....But

    Last night my DH and I got a sitter and went to a Halloween party at one of our favorite clubs. We spent way to much money and drank way to much but we had a great time. We got home last night and realized we spent about $80 but that also included food.
    Today, I'm paying for it though my thighs hurt so badly from dancing all night but what a blast. Anyone else go to any good Halloween parties?

    Glad you had a great time.
    Sometimes you just have to splurge and treat yourselves.

    That's great that you were able to go out and have a good time.

    We had to go to bed early on Halloween cause we had to get up at 3am and be at our Grange (Community Involvement Organization) for a Hunter's Breakfast that started at 4:30 am. Organization made $116. Not bad.

    We did the same thing! We threw caution (and a bit of our budget) to the wind and got a sitter Saturday night and went to a costume party with some of the guys that DH works with. We had a blast, I got to meet some of his co-workers, and I drank waaaaaay too much (I haven't had keg beer in years ). Luckily, the party was less than 2 blocks from our house, so we were able to walk..and our babysitter lives 2 doors down, so we didn't have to drive her home!

    We had tons of fun, but I paid for it yesterday!
