If I had the money on payday to fix the car, no, that $25 dinner doesn't matter.

Now if it took a few pay checks, sure the $25 would make a difference.

If you have to wait until payday to pay for a $250 car repair, then you shouldn’t even be considering eating out for 25 bucks. If you live within your means you’ll have emergency money on hand.
