You eat in Gatlinburg?
And you call yourself frugal.
I've not eaten up there in the past 20 years, but that's because the parking is impossible.
To answer the original question, I'm certainly conscious of prices when I order in a restaurant. That's not to say I won't spend the money to dine well, but I don't intend to be surprised when the check comes. Plus, I want to save room for dessert. Desserts are one of my indulgences. Give me something with double fudge cake, ice cream, hot chocolate syrup, nuts, whipped cream, topped with a cherry, and I'll happily pay the freight.
