Eat out?

We eat out at most once a week, though DH's family usually gets a pizza when we're there on Sundays.
:ducky:

Does McDonald's count LOL - it's DS's favorite place, so I let him eat there about once a week. Other than that, we order in every couple of weeks.

Usually get something every Saturday night. I can never be bothered cooking on Saturday so it's nice to get a night off.

We usually eat out on Saturday night and for lunch after church on Sundays. Although, my youngest is at the age where she is not "restaurant-friendly" so lately ordering in has been more fun.

Yvette, to me, McDonald's counts. Otherwise it's about once every 6 weeks!! (though it's Taco Bell or a sub, not McD's)

Laura, I'm right there with you. It's much easier to have dinner at home than to take the girls out! :scared0016:

Some weeks it seems like that's all we do is eat out. We usually have A&W on Thursdays - it's sort of a tradition for us. When I worked full time I worked until 9:00 and had supper break at 5:00. He was finished work at 5:00 - it was perfect for a nice supper out for us.

It is about once a week for us too. Friday's we sometimes have pizza and then we will usually have fast food on Saturday's for lunch. The last time we were at a sit down restaurant was Dec 26 for dh's birthday. The kids did pretty good. My dh is kind of cheap doesn't like to tip. So we rarely eat at a sit down restaurant.

Well the last couple of weeks we've eaten out way more than we should. lol But normally probably once a week, a quick lunch while we are out running errands, but if we have a bad day during the week sometimes we'll order something in.

We're so bad about eating out. But we've been doing a much better job these past few weeks. We pretty much eat out on the weekends. Especially on Friday nights.

We eat take out on fridays. I babysit that day and I never feel like cooking anything when I get home. So I usually pick something up or we order in pizza.
Zoie and I hit McD's after her playgroup which is twice a month.

Camille and I eat out for lunch about once a week (usually Chick-Fil-A with Tamra & her kiddos)!!
Other than that, the family might eat out for dinner like once or twice a week. We try to stay within a reasonable budget. Like if we go to a nice sit-down kind of place, it'll likely just be one outing that week. If we go on the cheap, we can usually get in a trip to Chipotle and one other quickie meal.

I've not felt too good lately, so I haven't wanted to cook at all. I am trying so hard to get better though. The last two nights, I've had dinner planned in advance and that makes it so much easier!

We are sooo bad about eating out. We hit the Carl's Jr. once a week to let Kaelyn play while Amalie is in class and we like to go to Del Taco alot. HAAAAA.

Other then that, whenever we go out of town we eat out. And I order pizza a lot when I am totally pooped out.

It's about once a week on take-out (read pizza, mcd's, burger king, taco bell, the yummy Mexican restaurant right outside of our subdivision). We went out to an actual sit down place for lunch, yesterday...just Tim, Chloe and me...it was yummy, but it got stressful quick when Chloe didn't want to sit down in her high chair anymore...ugh! THAT is why we haven't been OUT for dinner in a loooong time. I LOVE going out to eat...heehee :)

going out to a sit down dinner is usually a special thing like birthdays/anniversary/mother's day or date night. Owen doesn't do good in sit down places so we limit that. but we do take out/fast food WAY to much.

We never eat out. Mainly because there is only McD's and Arby's here in the way of fast food and the restaurants in town are so pricey because of the casinos and tourists.

hmm, probably 2-3 times a week, either as a family or just me and the kiddos.

have I mentioned that I dislike cooking? And there are waaaaay too many places to eat around here . . . (and yet no Chick Fil A or Sonic)
