In reply to Holly. That's great! Sometimes it's worth it to spend a little more on convenience-type foods if it keeps you from eating out and spending even more,

Pizza looks great. I used to make homemade a lot but now with having an infant it’s a bit rough. We will get a freezer pizza or get a fresh ready to bake one at a local store. It’s usually only $5-$7, much less than takeout.

In reply to Andrea Dekker. Yes! So much easier! It helps that I really like being home and our home feels like a good, comfortable place to be :)

you know I’m a BIG fan of staying home — especially when little kids are involved! Everything is cheaper, easier and less stressful when we stay home!

In reply to Gina. Thanks so much Gina! I try so hard not to blow all of our going out money at the beginning of the month :) It doesn't usually work.

In reply to Erin | A Welder's Wife. Thanks Erin! We have a hard time agreeing on movies we both want to see, but it does happen occasionally :) But I love a good takeout and movie at home night!

I love these ideas! We are a Redbox dating kind of couple as well! I love grabbing takeout from somewhere, grabbing a movie, and enjoying the night. Since we’ve gotten Netflix, we are able to cook a fabulous dinner together at home and find a movie we haven’t seen to watch.

Such a good point! We have been trying to really be aware of our budget lately and when the “going out ” fund is done.. we need to stay home! Love these points!
