Friday Question of the Day – How Much Would You Splurge for a Dinner?

Thanks to a reader for sending word about the Shaw Bijou update from the Washington Post:

“The Shaw Bijou, 1544 Ninth St. NW. Opens Nov. 1 for dinner. 5:30 to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday. $185 tickets go on sale Monday via Tock.”

That would be $185 not including drinks. The reader included one word with the email: “Oof.”

So, Friday Question of the Day – here we are: How much would you spend per person at a restaurant? Presumably for many this would be a splurge so what would warrant the loosening of the purse strings? A very special birthday like a 25th, 30th, 40th etc.? New job? Anniversary? The Nationals win the World Series?


Ed. Note: We had an interesting more general FQotD last year talking about How Much do you Budget/Spend per week on Food?

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
