I used to be a restaurant person as well as the area we live in in Melbourne is seething with cafes and restaurants but now, since we got our TMX, we rarely go out. We have one take away each week from our local Thai restaurant and, unless I forget to take something out of the freezer or simply work too, too late to prepare something and we have to resort to one of the local restaurants, it's home cooked every night for us and that is saving us heaps of money (apart from the fact that I cook more than enough food on a weekend to put into the freezer that we HAVE to eat at home so that there is enough room in the freezer for me to put more food into next week - does that make sense?)
