I'm feeling happier about having to go out to a restaurant tonight and we've even managed to look at their menu online and work out roughly how much we'll need for the night. All 3 of us know what we're having so fingers crossed it won't be too painful when the bill comes!
Frugal Tip #5 - Eating in Restaurants
*If you can choose where to eat, have a look round at their menus, see if they have any deals or offers on any specific nights
*If possible, look at the menu in advance so you know roughly how much cash to take with you, if you haven't got the money to buy the tasty looking dessert that the woman on the table next to you is eating then you won't be tempted to buy it
*Order some table water rather than buying expensive drinks
*Don't feel that you need a starter
*Don't feel that you can't share a side order with someone else at your table
*If you want to finish the night off with something sweet or a coffee, have something at home when you get in
Fingers crossed for a pleasant evening. It should be, but if the food isn't nice then it'll hurt even more when handing over the money as I'd know we could have eaten better at home for a lot cheaper :-s
