  3. I'm totally boggled by the $500 date night. We might spend $50 for dinner and movie, but $500? Yikes!!

    The beauty of it being March 1st is that you can "do better" this month. That is what I tell myself.

    1. I know that sounds like a whole lot ( although the food catagories is what really boggles my mind!)

      Me and hubby never go to the movies or anything like that , this was to go try our luck at the casino and a dinner.
      While we really do not go to a casino often, even this date night was way more than usual. We usually go, on the rare occasion we do on much much less.
