My Spending, Lately
March 12th, 2008
Thanks to the wonderful PF blogosphere, I’ve been spending less lately. This past weekend, I spent $15 for lunch Sunday. Like, that was ALL I spent, all weekend.
Other little victories:
1. Haven’t bought myself new clothes since February 5 (over a month ago!) when I bought about $50 in stuff from H & M.
2. Haven’t eaten out during the work day since February 21–OK, OK, I did spend $4 on Tuesday when we all went for fast food. Turned out, though, when they reimbursed me for the meal after I picked it up, they’d paid for my $4 meal, too. I guess just rounding up their dollars worked in my favor, and they wouldn’t take a penny back.
We’ve all resolved no more ordering until April 1.

Wow! Great job! It’s so hard to curb the “normal” spending that we do. I find it’s much harder to give up the little things than the big ones: I can go without a 102″ plasma, but a $5 lunch out…
Great job! Keep it up!
