I order out 1/3 of the week and cook my own food for the rest.
Chemda is right, the takeout fees and tips and everything are, at minimum, $10 more than what you'd get if you actually went to the place and got the food yourself. A lot of people get the food delivered, and that's definitely more expensive than going out and getting the takeout yourself or cooking.
Also, a lot of people have self-control issues when the "unhealthy" option is presented to them all the time, in their home.
I like Keith's idea of compromising and also taking her out.
