I have posted out Eating Out/Take-Out Totals for May HERE.
Most of our spending on Eating Out was while we were on our 2 week trip to Louisiana, obviously.
I bought 2 Subway subs while Hubs was on a work conference at the beginning of May so I didn't have to cook while he was gone.
Go me.
That $12.72 for the subs was all the non-trip eating out or take-out we bought in May.
Of the 12 nights spend at hotels/motels we only paid for 1 breakfast(Waffle House). All other hotels supplied Breakfast with the cost of the room.
We only ate Lunch 7 of the 12 days(plus I had a chicken biscuit on a day we didn't have Lunch to tied me over until Dinner that night).
12 Dinners were eaten, 3 of which were treated for us. 8-) There was also a turkey sandwich consumed one evening when Hubs and shared a pizza and didn't realize until it was too late that the pizza was a single serve type. Oops! lol
We also treated the Daughter to 5 Dinners/Lunches so that boosted the out of pocket paying for an extra person.
There was also 2 trips to breweries where drinks were consumed which gets added to this budget.
And add in the cost of about 40 cups of coffee for Hubs(from various places)while on the road.
Seriously.
40 cups.
Now this doesn't begin to count all the liquid refreshment that was brought home to be consumed later.
All in all we did pretty well keeping this expense down.
Yes, we did splurge and have a few $50+ dinners but most meals came in at around $24.
And compared to our trip in 2015, we spent $168.52 less in 2016 on eating on vacation.

Bought Chick Fil A gift cards two months ago (10% off if you buy them at Sam's). Used them all this month. Plus a few trips to Subway for the Grands as they awaited their new sister. BUT- we have stashed all extra eating out money away for our trip this month. We plan to eat well in San Francisco/ Monterey with our son's family.
