I'm not doing no-spend (witness the fact I bought a new laptop yesterday), but you gals have convinced me to track my cash spending. I have my itouch available most of the time, so it's easy. No more $100 fromthe ATM and where did it go....

Pkilmain-I'm the opposite. If I use a credit or debit card- I don't see the cash I'm spending.
I'm so much better with cash.Posted 6 months ago # -

o i could have waited a few more days to finish my month, but i was right there and they were right there....

coming to the end of my no-spend month and looking good.
i considered a drive to the city, but it's really hot and oppressive and there is nothing i really need or want right now.
i might just bask in that sensation for a bit.Posted 5 months ago # -
oh i got used to my new spending habits- nearly forgot about the no-spend-time! :)
bandicoot, that sounds wonderful, like you really changed your way of spending and attitude towards spending.
i also made progress. i didn´t reach my goal of a strict NO-spend-at-all-period but i bought food and toiletries and i am absolutely fine with that, even if i could have used the food that i already had in my kitchen.
and there were some health-related spendings, that i didn´t want to avoid. the health insurance pays the easiest and cheapest way to repair a tooth and i have chosen a better treatment that i have to pay for. i can´t think of a better way to spend the money that i saved because of the no-spend-time.
i also booked two sport classes that are health related. i made sure in advance that the health insurance pays for them- they do and so i will get 80% back. i never knew the value of health until i got really sick and i fight and make health related expenses to my top priority to get and stay healthy.Posted 5 months ago #
