I don't care how much it costs, I want good food. I refuse to eat any fast food other than Subway.

same.
my boyfriend and i don't go out often to eat as we're broke most of the time, so maybe, at the most, 20 dollars a month at a nice vegetarian/vegan restaurant close by.

we spend 70 dollars a week[ish] on groceries. it's so cheap because our groceries consist of bags of lentils/beans/nutiritional yeast/etc,etc,etc which are not very expensive but great in a homecooked meal.

I spent about $30 a week on groceries and I could live off that, but I usually go to subway a few times a week and mcdonalds for hot and spicy mc chickens.

i eat home-cooked meals
for home-cooked meals to be prepared you have to visit the grocery
it might cost a lot depending on what you are cooking
it's more expensive if i was eating at.. say.. a fast food restaurant

Typically a good restaurant, you're lookin at no less than $15 for a plate, main course meal. I don't eat much fast food, I'll eat it if there's literally nothing to eat and just want a fast meal. But the only fast food I'll eat is Chipotle, Quiznos, Wendys (their chicken is win), and Chick-fil-A.


If you have a cheesecake factory around you.... you should try it out. But you'll easily spend $15-20 on yourself.

I work at Chickfila & its expensive...well...for me its kinda expensive 3.25 for the CFA sandwich or 8pk nuggets. (I can't buy it all the time) But its real meat, unlike Mcdonalds. the 99cent 5piece nuggets at wendys is jst awesome. For home-cooked meals, my mom usually buys the groceries (Foodmax & costco) she stocks up when the meat fruits or veggies are cheap

I only go out to restaurants every once in a while. When I'm with my friends we usually just make something at someone's house rather than go to dinner or get fast food. I can go months without eating out at a restaurant, but the most I go out to dinner is 3-4 times a month. ph34r.gif
