At the very least, and most of what we do, is to bring back leftovers and eat those instead of going out for another meal. Even doing this once or twice can save a good chunk of money, especially if it's a dinner out you're skipping. Then make your reservations for lunch instead of dinner if you can. Tip: Clean up big messes.
