Random observation about budgeting/spending

January 4th, 2011 at 05:14 pm


and it is (big drum roll, please) ... it isn't fun when there isn't any money left to spend on "deals" (like sale prices with coupons which will yield CVS's ECB or Walgreen's Bonus Dollars).

I must learn to accept the fact that the money we had is now spent and payday is Friday. We aren't starving or needing these items - it is just my palms are itching to participate in great money saving/making schemes, but there isn't any money left.

Here has been a recap on the spending since 1/1:

Eating out at Chili's: $50 Gift Card, $15 on debit card
Groceries at Target: $53.09 Gift Card, $3.09 on debit card
Kohl's: $29.93 with Kohl's Cash (free Nerf dart gun, Urban Pipeline jeans, two Godiva chocolate bars, and a Hallmark Christmas Story ornament)
Speedway: $46.25 in gas (two cars)
Groceries (+ one 2011 Christmas gift): $37.96
Sam's Club weekly trip: $125.25 (no OOP because used Script gift cards purchased thru kids school).

The $105.00 balance quickly dwindled to $2.50. Frown

There will be other sales, right?
