Default Re: Saving money while eating out

My husband and I split the main meat all the time. We can eat at some really nice places by doing this which is fun. Of course, it helps when you both like the same thing or are willing to eat the same thing! But anyway, what we do is order a side salad and a side veggie if the meal comes with only one side; if it comes with 2 sides, then just a salad and we skip the dessert and order water which saves a ton. We have found a way to inexpensively bring our "drink" with us. We go to the health food store or if you have a Walmart, they carry them and get a box of Emergen-C (tangerine is my favorite and my husbands is Cranberry/Tangerine mixed) and I carry the packets in my purse and we put them in our water and voila' we have a great healthy drink. That is my suggestion.

I am looking forward to seeing what everyone suggests.
