Pick a number for the month: two restaurant meals, one delivery, or whatever fits your life. When the number is used, the rest of the meals are from home. A limit you chose is kinder than a rule you break on a tired Wednesday and then abandon.
Delivery is often the quiet leak. The meal price, the service fee, and the tip can turn a simple dinner into something close to a restaurant bill. If you compare one week of delivery with the groceries for those same meals, the gap is usually obvious. As an illustration, redirecting even one 40 delivery each week is about 160 a month.
Start this week
Look at last month’s food apps and circle the orders that were convenience, not a celebration. Drop one of those this week.
