Sunday was our 11 year wedding anniversary. Since money is tight we agreed not to exchange gifts but we did order an electronic gift card for Claim Jumper thanks to our Discover cash back rewards. We love their steaks so we tend to eat there once every few years, typically on our anniversary.
Then inertia struck. Sunday evening rolled around and we didn’t feel like going out so we ordered pizza (using our Lou Malnati’s gift card) and decided we’d visit Claim Jumper on Monday evening instead. We reasoned it wouldn’t be as crowded and since we had errands to run that day we’d already be out. Except on Monday we got up early, got our errands out of the way, and when dinnertime rolled around were busy with stuff around the house and didn’t feel like going out again.
So that’s how we did absolutely nothing to celebrate our anniversary. Woo hoo, marriage!
On the plus side when we are in the mood for a good steak we have the $50 gift card and shouldn’t spend too much out of pocket if we split a nice filet and another entree.
LOL, that ends up being life here most of the time too. We had our 11 year anniversary on May 21, 2016. We used a coupon for a couple’s massage the day before and spent the day of pet sitting and going to a friend’s potluck. 🙂
That sounds like a nice way to spend your anniversary weekend!
