Maybe once a week for fast food and once a month for a sit down place. Right now we cut it out of our budget while I am on maternity leave to off set the lack of my income for 2 months. Though I did cheat the other day and got the kids some BK...gotta give myself a break with the new baby in the house

. My DH will go out to lunch maybe once a week for work, but it doesn't come out of our budget.
