OY - How often do you eat out?

It seems like every one in my town goes out to eat most every night.  We like to go 1 maybe twice a week. How about you?

Much too often.  Long days at work, long drive home..I dont' cook nearly as much as I used to. By the time I get home from work, the last thing I want to do is get in the kitchen and cook.

We do carryout just about every night

Maybe once a month...sometimes not at all!

Very rarely.  We (DH and I) enjoy eating at home and saving the money. It's expensive for what you get and I can use the money for my weekly groceries.  I'm a SAHW and have the time to cook and like it.  Everyone is different and it's an "it depends" situation.  We will pack a picnic before we go out shopping for the day and stop to eat it somewhere, a park perhaps.  Our first purchase as a couple was a picnic basket...and we still use it 38 years later.  So I guess we do "eat out"...but we bring our own food!

It depends on what kind of week I'm having. Most of the times it's at least 3-4 times a week..

very rarely... my husband drives truck so when he finally gets home the last thing he wants to do is eat in a restuarant --- which i totally understand, but just once in awhile a break sure would be nice! :) 

We eat out once every couple of months. We can afford to eat out more. We like cooking together. I'm particular about the ingredients in my food and just prefer to eat at home.  

Once a week - mostly for Dim Sum on weekends. We never eat out on weekdays.

 For us, it also depends on the week.....this time of year is very busy for us and I'm not always able to put a homecooked meal on the table.  I would say 2 - 3 times a week we either eat out or call for takeout.  

We have been married 35 years and we always have a Saturday night "date" that includes going out to dinner.  The rest of the week I cook all the meals.  When our three daughters lived at home we ate out a little more, due to being on the road alot more, going to their soccer and softball games etc.

We eat out with friends every Friday night, and  also Sunday brunch, there's just the two of us and DH says I cook better than any restaurant in town, I tell him he just says that so he doesn't have to take me out more often.Judy

We don't eat full meals out very often, maybe once a month.

When I make Italian food, we get a dozen garlic knots from a local restaurant. When I make a salad bar night, we get a big container of ranch dressing from a local restaurant because we like it. Once a week, more or less, there's a take-out element in our meal. I like to do that. It's cheaper than eating out, but it makes a regular home cooked meal a little different.
