Tip #4-Involve your friends in your savings challenge

Done and done just by simply typing it here. However, I'm going to take this one step further and figure that I spend anywhere from $16-22 for Friday night dinner. I'm going to try to be more cost concious and spend half that.

Savings ($44):

old
$22x4dinners per month=$88

new
11x4 dinners=$44

I think I may have to develop an envelope system for this one b/c I tend to overspend on these dinners. It may be time to pull out some 2-for-1 dinner coupons or the restaurant coupons I bought that allow me to save $25 off a $35 dinner at Johnny Carino's. This sweet deal only cost me $2 when restaurant.com was having their 80% off sale last week.
