Our Friday night's are very busy, so we've decided to stop cooking on Friday nights and eat out. However, we still need to do so on a budget. I've worked $20 into our weekly budget for Friday nights. If you have eaten out lately, you know feeding a family of 4 on $20 isn't always easy, especially when you don't want to eat the same thing every week. Below are some of our favorite places to eat and an idea of how we make it work.
Note: Most of the time, we get the food and bring it home. This way we can use the drinks we already have at home!
Little Ceasars: $5 pizza's. Need I say more
Papa John's: They regularly run deals with $11 large pizzas. If you sign up for the rewards program and order online, you'll end up eventually earning a free pizza. Watch out for codes to get more points. I've earned and redeemed SEVERAL free pizzas!
McDonalds: They recently re-did the value menu and our regular orders are no longer just a $1. However, you can still easily score 4 hamburger or chicken sandwiches, fries (we generally get 2 large fries and split them), and 4 large drinks for under $20. This is the only place we get drinks, every time.
Krystals: The sackfull combos are actually a very good deal!
Subway: Subway runs deals on footlongs during various months. For January, all footlongs were $5. We recently got 3 footlongs and 3 chips to share for $20. That was actually supper and lunch!
Taco bell- If you just get Taco's you can get plenty to feed a family of 4.
