I plan out what to spend, and where to spend it.<BR/>I also curb my husband's lunch budget by sneaking out a serving for lunch for him the next day, BEFORE serving dinner. It's also a sneaky way for me to help with his portion control. :)<BR/>We still eat out once a week or so, but it's usually to get the family together for lunch, or grabbing some papa murphy's on a less-than-stellar day. :)Abbie Nelsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17388697416126326282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-600231081172224273.post-18268632211306356052007-09-10T15:44:00.000-04:002007-09-10T15:44:00.000-04:00Those are some great ideas!

When I plan meals, and I always make double, so we can have leftovers, I make a corresponding shopping list. I only get what is on the list--I can't believe how much time and money I've saved this way.<BR/><BR/>Another thing we do is when we have to go to Santa Fe, we eat before our outing so we're not tempted to stop somewhere in town and eat.Mrs Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01737295446780857349noreply@blogger.com
