Your Money, Their Eatery!!!

So, the first quarter will be closed out in another ten days and I'm wondering how many folks have already over spent when it comes to eating out. Finances and Food goes hand in hand in our society; it has become apart of life for millions to buy something daily while outside of the home. However, I'm wondering if anyone has made an eatery budget and kept to it.

I had a conversation last night with one of my most favorite people and of course she laughed at me, and I laughed at myself as well because the when, where and how much of me eating out for 2012 could be quickly rattled off my tongue without any hesitation. That's right!! I've eaten out for a friend's birthday dinner on Jan. 28 and for my Cooper River Bridge's practice run on March 10th. On both occasions, I ate just before arriving and opted for a salad (it was the only choice on the menu). My post run salad was the best I have ever paid for (it was complimented by my two homemade veggie burgers).

To the more important questions now!!! Did you make an eatery budget? Are you sticking with it? If so, what has helped you to be successful? If not, what are some of your challenges?
