Guys!
Our eating out ban was so super successful! We spend nothing, notta, zero, ziltch in restaurants in March! We have $800 left over in the day to day right now, and are feeling so good about how this went. So good in fact, that we have decided that while we won't say no if a friend or family member invites us out, we're going to continue on the ban if it's just the two of us.
Woohoo!

Congrats! That's quite an accomplishment. Did all of that $800 come from not eating out?
ReplyDeletethank you! It came from not eating out and spending way less in gas then we normally do. I've got the monthly spend analysis coming for tomorrow's post I think that shows it in more detail.
DeleteThat's awesome Jessie! Giving up eating out made a huge difference for us as well- both in our budget and our health!
