That drink you bought for that girl\/guy in the bar last night.<\/p>\n<p>Unless you&#8217;re down at Bob&#8217;s Pub, drinks are not exactly cheap anymore unless that person that&#8217;s caught your eye is really into Milwaukee&#8217;s Best (no offense to our Milwaukean users!). \u00a0Fellas, you know that most women you meet in a bar or dance club are always going to answer with some sort of exotic drink request, and you know those are going to cost more than an Abraham Lincoln.<\/p>\n<p>2. A six-inch sub at Subway<\/p>\n<p>Raise your hand if you miss the $5 dollar foot long special? \u00a0Okay, so I don&#8217;t miss that irritating commercial with the annoying jingle, but\u00a0that was a pretty good deal for lunch. \u00a0Well, not anymore &#8211; you can barely get a six inch sub at Subway these days for less than five bucks, but you know what you can get? \u00a0A one month subscription to LFG. \u00a0And we don&#8217;t add plastic additives to our site, so yeah, there&#8217;s that too.<\/p>\n<p>3. Two energy drinks<\/p>\n<p>I really really enjoy Sugar Free Red Bull, but they&#8217;re just so freaking expensive for just 8oz of caffeinated joy. \u00a0Since we&#8217;re all gamers here, chances are energy drinks are a routine item listing on our monthly budgets (whether that budget is actual or notional); but you get the point. \u00a0A chance to meet the person of your dreams, or two overpriced energy drinks? \u00a0We both know the answer to that question!<\/p>\n<p>4. Drive through Chicago (or any major city)<\/p>\n<p>Growing up in Chicago, I have always had to fork over a ridiculous amount of cash for the toll roads &#8211; which in Chicago are <i>all<\/i> roads. \u00a0While the toll rates are extremely cheap if you buy an electronic iPass for your car, if you&#8217;re an out of towner looking to cut through Chicago you had better have at least $20 bucks cash on you. \u00a0If you&#8217;re off to meet up with some friends or you&#8217;re heading out to the suburbs for a date, you&#8217;ll spend more in tolls one way than you would here at LFG &#8211; by a long shot.<\/p>\n<p>5. Coffee<\/p>\n<p>Oh Starbucks. \u00a0You&#8217;re one of the better brands of coffee out there, and with stores just about on every corner it&#8217;s just so convenient to pull in and grab a venti black coffee to keep me powered up. \u00a0But at $2.50 a pop now, would it really hurt to give up two of those a month in order to find love? \u00a0Do you see just how insanely cheap an LFG subscription is?<\/p>\n<p>As you can see, a premium membership at LFG provides an insane amount of value. \u00a0With our six month plan at just $20 &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/start.php\">that&#8217;s just $3.33 a month folks<\/a> &#8211; you can grab the biggest value for the cheapest long-term price around. \u00a0And with the insane amount of growth happening here at LFG, you&#8217;ll be locked in to make sure you&#8217;ll never miss an opportunity to find love. \u00a0Because that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re here for, isn&#8217;t it?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>\/Image courtesy of Bar Congress @\u00a0http:\/\/poco-cocoa.com\/2011\/01\/bar-congress\/<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Only five things? \u00a0Actually I could probably list a hundred different every day items or monthly expenditures that are more expensive, but let&#8217;s kick this off with five, shall we? \u00a0You probably are already aware of the huge benefits of a premium LFGdating subscription, like unlimited messaging, advertisement-free matches browsing and the exclusive ability to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1128,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[4,212],"tags":[218,10],"amp_validity":null,"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/611"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=611"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/611\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":614,"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/611\/revisions\/614"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1128"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=611"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=611"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lfgdating.com\/gamer-dating-blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=611"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
