Yes and its because I'm broke
-
Yes, especially fast food since they all seem to of really raised prices making it really not worth eating.
-
Yes. Mainly for health reasons. I have almost completely cut out dining out and have been doing a good job losing weight. I think you never really know what you are eating when you eat out.
-
Yes. I stopped eatting out once per week.
-
I have cut my eating by 2/3 in the last month and lost about 20 pounds and never felt better.The trick is to leave your meal a little hungry.
-
I've been single too long...so yes...nyuk, nyuk, nyuk But seriously, it's a pretty tight crunch these days. Everything is getting more expensive. Even things like rice. Why can't my boss understand that? I need a raise...
-
Yes, I am trying to lose weight so I can have another baby. I have to be healthy.
-
My local minor league baseball team is offering $1 hot dogs for the rest of the season. Since, if you consider that eating out, I've been eating out a LOT more!! Man, I love hot dogs!!! 9 innings, a hot dog an inning!! That double header the other day nearly bursted my tummy wide open!
-
no, I love it eat too much.
-
Yes. There are lots of more options at the supermarkets for easy to prepare food (for the days I am dead tired from work).
-
Yes, it's too expensive. And fattening. :/
-
I used to eat out with my folks any chance i got. Now days i work as a chef and never do eat out! But i taste the food i cook to make sure it is good to serve, to keep a good reputation
-
Yes, because 1) it's expensive 2) my family is having less and less time for it.
-
I hardly eat out to begin with
-
I am, just because I've been eating extremely healthy and so I just make my own meals now...so I know exactly what I'm eating.
-
Yes, because I am trying to lose weight and with the higher price of gas, I don't have money to waste.
-
Yes
-
I am single and love cooking & baking so I cook most of the time.It doesn't have to be a time-consuming meal.Sometimes noodle soup will do me :) I love eating out ocassionally but never dined out more than 4 days a week.
-
We still go to Wendys and some small places, but we never go out to dinner at a nice place.
-
Yes ! We are really making an effort to eat much healthier and that's hard to do while eating out all the time.
-
Yes. My wife and I now spend nearly 20% of our income on gas and another 55% on rent and utilities. The remaining 25% goes to groceries, car repair, medical bills... We used to go out at least twice a week. Now once a month is pushing it.
-
Not really, but I am eating delicious food.
-
Yes I'am, for I live in a relativley small community that is host to a world of Nothern Travelers that are at some time or another travelling through our vast Northern Canada. I would like to eat out but things are kind of based around the tourist schedules and tourist money, so I will not go to a local restaraunt for another couple of months just to make room for tournsts, but I do declare for some one who has only been a Bagger for less than 3 days you are phenominally moving along at a unpresidented speed like until I got used to things with how to get points and to give points and to generally get the game and how it is to work, you are doing, great! really.
-
Yes I am. Money seem to be hard to come by these days, and eating at home is cheaper for us.
-
Much less. It costs way too much and I have to cut down my expenses.
-
Im working out station and staying alone and have no choice but to eat outside everyday.The cost of cooking for a single person is more expensive these days and its better to eat outside.
-
I've been cooking more and more lately because we're both trying to maintain/lose weight, and not every restaurant has really healthy items on their menus. That, and the prices of everything is going up, especially gas, and it's gotten way too expensive!
-
Yes I am
-
yep. except chipotle lol
-
Yep,because I'm studying for my exams and dont go to university and I'm at home .
-
Not less, just better foods for my body.
-
Actually, its just my wife and i and its cheaper for us to eat out, than to cook.
-
I do treat myself to Burger King once or twice a month and it still works out.
-
OF COURSE= I MOVED HERE SEPT-08, IT ONLY HAS A MC DONALDS AND A SUBWAY. THE REST ARE 50 MILES AWAY. LIKE I SAID OF COURSE.
-
No i just use vouchers like the ones found at www.yourcoffeebreak.co.uk there are some great deals for loads of well known restaurants like strada, ask, burger king and pizza express.
-
I can't stop eating out.....that's how I keep my girlfriend happy ;)
-
Yes , at home .... When I go out ; I go to buffets and eat like a horse ...
-
Sure. It costs money!!
-
Not really, we just go to more expensive places now because we don't like the crowds at the less expensive places!
-
Yes, we are eating out less nowadays. Instead of going to a Red Lobster, we eat at our local restaurant when they have their Fish Fry Day once a month.
-
We continue to eat out about once a week but it's almost impossible not because of the ecomomy but because our 4 year old is a handfull and makes it less than enjoyable.........
-
less and less these days. eating out is expensive sometimes and i usually gain weight faster if i eat out all the time. plus i'm trying to learn how to cook more things.
-
I seem to be eating out less but getting more take out. Life has gotten hectic with far far more work with cut backs and less people in the office. i just dont seem to have time to cook...or go out for meals?! still got enough time for AB though!!
-
We have cut back a lot on eating out and I really miss it
-
Yes, We are eating out less these days and I also believe alot of other people are because it seems like when we go out to eat the restaurants are not nearly as full as they used to be.
-
I hardly ever eat out, literally once a year or less. I eat a vegan diet so it's kind of hard to find a restaurant that caters for me.

Yes indeed. I am cutting corners like the rest of us.
-
I never eat out at all anymore. Haven't had a meal in a restaurant in months and months.
-
Yes, perhaps once a month.

We eat out once in a while, not any less than before though.

its difficult to find a restaurant that will serve real food. like, free range chicken eggs are lower in cholesterol than factory eggs. most of the food I eat when I eat out turns into dirt when it hits the toilet water. what is that?

With the economy the way it's going, I'm eating out only every now and then!
