not much... we dont rent movies, we dont go out to see movies, we are home bodies... so I guess you might count our cable bill?

We go out once a month, probably. That's a lot better than it used to be. We don't pay for cable, but we do pay for Netflix. And, we have internet.

When we do go out once a month, it's usually $40ish.

Uhhh...the only TV we currently have is Netflix instant watch which is like $8 a month or something. We don't see movies out or go do anything else cause of DS and not having a babysitter. We go out to eat on the money I don't spend from the grocery budget (I budget $70 a week but we normally only spend $50).

I don't consider internet entertainment. It's on our budget listed as a necessity along with utilities.

We are kind of the same way about the internet! We are both student, me being only online, so we need it.

We have Netflix, occasionally we rent from redbox when it's on wait with netflix. We only go out to the movies once in awhile. It's been months since we last went. Only thing we do buy from time to time and we get them when they first come out because they're on sale are DVD new releases. But there have been times we couldn't afford and we just waited to it was on sale again before we bought it.

We pay$105ish for tv/internet a month. We need the high-speed internet for dh to work while he's home so it's a necessity. We dont go to the movie theater. We get movies from the library 90% of the time. If a good movie comes out and the library doesnt have it, we use redbox for it. So maybe spend $2 a month on rentals, if that.
