Money Saving Challenge

DH and I these last few nights have been eating in, grilling on the patio etc. That's quite the money saver compared to going out as often as some of our friends who don't cook.
Entertainment this weekend is a big money saver for us:

Tonight we're going out to Stir Crazy it's a stir fry chinese type restaurant we have a gift card for with some friends. We picked the restaurant last week and it was a pleasent surprise at work today to find out I'd won a giftcard :)

My college roommate is coming in to town to visit with us and she and I are making her wedding invitations at our house and we'll be staying in watching chic flicks while we work. We're going to go for a morning run at a local metropark by my house.
Saturday night-
DH and I are meeting up with some friends to go to the drive in. They let you bring your cooler in no charge as long as you clean up after yourself. You get a double feature for $20/car (4 people 2 movies=$2.50 each). I'm pretty excited I love the drive in and think its sad that so many have closed.
Sunday DH and I are having volleyball practice with his sisters and their significant others. We're in a league together-we had our first game last night and it was awful. Disorganized, no communication then the siblings started arguing....I felt like a referee or the mother of small children.....which in hindsight is pretty comical.
We will probably be going bowling also on Sunday afternoon-we get 10 free games a week each because of the league we're in. DH is basically trying to teach me form....as opposed to my way which is just walk up and throw it and hope the pins fall down. :) But I'm just happy to be sharing in something DH loves.

  1. Wow! You really lucked out winning that giftcard. YEAH!

    Enjoy the drive in. I have always loved them also. We have one about a mile from our home and it shows the current movie every week.
