Oldest daughter's birthday is on Thanksgiving this year. All the kids had/have a budget of $125 for their celebrations. Oldest son just did it with $12 to spare.
I just ordered tickets to see "Wicked" in Chicago at a 2:00 matinee on a Wednesday. I had anticipated spending $85/ticket and having to cover my own. I ended up going directly to the theater's ticket website, got decent balcony tickets just off center. Four tickets for me/my mom/daughter/daughter's bff came to $253 (including $14 UPS delivery charges) or $63.25 per person. I'm covering the outing with my cash gift from my father and my mom is paying me back for her ticket.
Daughter's outing will have cost $126.50. Of course, there will be parking and maybe a dinner out, but all in all, a lot cheaper than I had anticipated. I like days like this!
Wicked ... here we come ...
