Cutting back on dining out

Never really did eat out. Only on the very rare occasions and that was once a year, maybe. It really is not a necessary expense. Not only do you have to pay for a meal that is much cheaper to cook at home but there is also the transportation. So that's two costs that can be saved on when you eliminate eating out.

Yes, I and my wife don't like to eat outside very much, except for some special occasions with friends. We would grab some street food if don't feel like to cook at home, which is quite simple and cheap. Because I have to prepare the work launch for the working days, so I always try to make some foods at home.

hi! except for pizza and anything baked, i get the best meals at home. i don't frequent restaurants unless necessary (like when i'm on travel) or special occasions. my big family enjoys food a lot and more so when we are together. it's a bit expensive really if we dine out often. and we just love hanging out over meals... a simple fare can be a four-hour lunch when we enjoyed ourselves at home. we can't do that in some restaurants. besides, for a fraction of the cost... meals at home can be so much fun and economical. what we haved saved, we can use to other stuff just as important. it has been our practice ever since. coming from a big family, we cut back on unnecessary expenses or stuff we can do without so that we get to buy other stuff we need or have something for other leisure activities.

I rarely went out to eat before the "recession" but now I really don't. Just in order to save money. Not like I'm any good at saving money, but still!
