We've realized we don't necessarily dig going and spending $50, 100, 150+ for lunch, unless it is like on the coast of Hawaii occasionally, or a really boss crab cake, etc.

This has resulted in what is essentially a cheap date contest. Medal contenders include Ikea, Chick-fil-a, splitting a Firehouse Sub, and such. The Costco hot dog didn't get past the qualifying rounds - we're cheap, but not going to get to the scourging point.

Eating out was probably our #1 elective expense the last 5 or so years.
