You should do what I do with our restaurant problem. I put a certain amount of dollars into an envelope and put it in my wife's purse every week. That is the money we have for restaurants for that week PERIOD! It has made me walk to the grocery store on days I forget my lunch because i want to save money for the weekend when I REALLY want to eat out. Just put a certain amount in an envelope every week (or month) and that is all you get. That way, you will only buy things you REALLY want because you know for every thing you buy, that is something else you can't buy.
