Why do people still bitch about the price of games?!

I don't know where you live, but in major metro areas, a chef's salad at a plain old regular diner costs almost $15, including tax and tip. So, for a family of three to eat a healthy meal (instead of a bucket of "Wild Wings") at a normal diner, that would cost almost $40 total.

Sure, I could feed my hypothetical family a cheap bucket of fried chicken wings or Ramen noodles, but I don't consider that a meal...and I have more respect for my family than to feed them junk like that.

I must be more poor than I thought, my family considers fried chicken from Bojangle's or KFC to be a full meal and steaks and Golden Corral to be too expensive.

The person I responded to said movies and dinner for three can be had for $50. I merely pointed out that tickets (at least here in NYC) are $11 each, so that leaves just $17 for dinner for three. Possible if you order three kids meals and don't leave a tip I guess.

When I go out to eat, it's usually $15-$20 a person at the minimum, although $39+ had been done before (took my g/f to this $75 per person place and regretted it, but that's another story...).

BTW, where did you come up with the $39 figure?

How are you spending $15 per person? Are you ordering some large Pepsi for you to drink with it?
