[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I would make frozen pizza instead of ordering. Pizza is just not worth the $$ for delivery anymore IMO. It costs at least $20 for one cheese pizza where I live.[/b] I would stick to two nights of take out but order more strategically (can you pick up one night instead of delivery?). Order from places with deals on Tuesday nights or that have family style options. I would try middle eastern food or places like nando's for family style chicken, etc. For breakfasts, you can get really economical with eggs, oatmeal, toast, make your own muffins, banana bread, etc. Make stuff on Sunday to use all week.[/quote] IMO, pizza is the one thing that *hasn't* skyrocketed in price over the past few years, as long as you do carryout. IIRC, Domino's does a large cheese for $7.99 or a large specialty for $11.99. Plus, since the social distancing of the pandemic, they bring the pizza out to your car, eliminating the most annoying part of carryout (getting out of your car and waiting in line).[/quote]
