Business Meals on a Budget

By Wendy Boswell on October 7, 2007 at 1:00 AM

Financial blog The Simple Dollar has written up a few tips on how to deal with those inevitable business lunches – and how to keep costs to a minimum.

  • I drink a large amount of water just before leaving.
  • Suggest carpooling.
  • Order water as the drink (it’s free).
  • Order something inexpensive but filling.
  • Participate strongly in the conversation – this keeps you from spending too much on the meal.

What’s your best budget tip for business meals? Thoughts in the comments.
