Well the weekend was a blast. I had my upholstery class Friday and that went well. My chairs are looking so much better. I was getting a bit discouraged because they were looking kind of ugly. But now I'm happier. Then we went home for a few hours, and then out to the local bar. It was a blast. Here's a tip to make the night even cheaper, Volunteer to be the DD. I think I spent about $13 total. Saturday, I took my visiting friend out to eat and then headed downtown Chi-town. We were suppose to go to the museum, but we would have only had 2 hours...not worth it. So we did a little shopping. I bought 4 work shirts for around $50. Two were winter sweaters and those were only for $10.50. I love deals.Dinner consisted of lunch leftovers too. It was good the second time too.

Then we went out again. We went the a bar where a friend new the bartender. We went right in without paying a cover (Saved $20) Then up to the VIP lounge where he was working. We didn't have to pay for a drink. I had maybe 4-5 drinks and a shot to celebrate my other friend's birthday. I did feel bad for not knowing the guy and getting free drinks, so I ended up tipping him about $20. It was well worth it. It was a fun night.

In total I spent:
Friday:
Dinner: $7 (for 2 with coupon)
Drinks $13 (hmmm unlucky?)

Saturday:
Lunch: $30 (for 2 no coupon)
Shopping: $53ish (4 shirts, and 8.75% sales tax)
Dinner: $0 (Leftovers)
Drinks/Dancing: $20
Transportation: $5.25 (Definate cheaper than driving and parking)

Sunday:
Groceries: $17 (I love coupons too!!)

Total: $145 and change. (Ouch, glad it's not every weekend)
