Last Saturday, we went to a place in Boynton Beach called Phyllis G's Enigma - we had a 25% off coupon and had never been. The entrees were pricier than we expected, but we didn't want the same thing, so we couldn't share.
So, I used part of my $20 discretionary allowance (from the previous two weeks) to get myself what I really wanted, snapper francese and a glass of sangria. Carrot had a burger and a beer. The sangria was really good, but I'm sticking with water next time. It's just not worth the money.
We did join their mailing list, and I just got an email with some early bird specials (buy one, get one free). We'll definitely go back - the food was awesome and it's a really cute place. Apparently, the usual (older) crowd starts to shuffle in around 6. You've been warned.
Then we went to Goodwill - I resisted the temptation to buy a super cute coat (one that would be perfect in my New York fantasy life, but is next to useless in my Florida reality life) and a couple of purses. Instead, I bought a canvas tote with a Hindi tobacco advertisement on it. Carrot got a tacky Hawaiian shirt and a random tie for her Halloween costume.
The bottom line:
Sangria: $5
Stella: $4.25
Snapper Francese: $18
Burger: $10
Total (after tax, discount, and tip): $37.76
Tote bag: $0.99
Hawaiian shirt: $2.49
Tie: $1.49
Total: $4.97
Date night this week cost...$42.73. Not bad.
