Actually all of these statements should be "we" and not "I." Justin and I both eat out a ton and it is seriously starting to dip into our bank account. So, to try and fix this problem we are challenging each other to a 30 day "Death by Drive Thru" Challenge!
No fast food or eating out of any kind for the next 30 days! Our challenge started today! I honestly was voting for more like 2 weeks, not a MONTH, but he thinks we can do it. So, today we went to the grocery store after work and spent about $50 more than we usually spend. Not bad at all considering that $50 will provide at least 2 weeks worth of meals and the $50 we spend on eating out would only last about a day or two! CRAZY!
I'm pretty nervous about this. I have a very limited pallet, as in - I do not like much at all, so I bought frozen chicken fries and french fries to quench my fast food cravings when they occur. Let's hope I can do this because I know husband won't have a problem with it!
If I told y'all how much we actually spend on eating out each month you'd probably think I was (a) crazy, (b) broke, (c) disgusting...so I'm not telling. I like y'all and want to keep you around. :)
Here goes nothing with Day 1 of the Morris household's "Death by Drive Thru" Challenge! Tonight J is making chili and I am eating a hot dog. No, I do not like chili. Yes, I realize I have issues.
Have you ever had any challenges/competitions with your spouse? Want to try the challenge too? I'd love to hear about if you do!
