Just added it up, ouch:

Friday - Dinner, drinks: $125
Saturday - Lunch, shopping, dinner, drinks and pool: $450
Sunday - Brunch, shopping, dinner party, movie rental and snacks: $135

$710 total, pretty standard weekend. Spent a little more at the bar because I let my friend run wild with my Amex. However, I would have spent the same amount on theater tickets or something on Friday normally.

Kinda hurts to see the amount... I usually don't add it up.

this in another one of those things that depending on you income and ,debt lode and lifestyle

people with massive debt should spend very little on recreation (but of course still recreate),but those with high incomes should stimulate the economy ;-)

and everyone else should spend what they like;-)and are comfortable spending .

one of my clients told me she never spends more on a day of vacation than she earns on a day of work,of course she was highly paid ,very rich successful woman and I thought that was sage advice and follow it as well
