Everyone should have their very own rules anyway, because although everyone wants to save money, they have to do it in their own way.<br /><br />I'm psyched to have you doing this with me!!

I think in the last 3 months I have eaten at work maybe 3 times (one for sure). I make my own tea at my desk. I bring my own tea leaves, and we have milk and sugar stocked in the floor kitchen. This saves me about 2$ a day... not a lot but it adds up ( $2x5days x4 weeks in a month= $40 a month x 12= $480 a year)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08449362949252022092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4835856675332706410.post-41103941617816125292011-01-24T14:01:51.141-08:002011-01-24T14:01:51.141-08:00Oh good luck!

It has been on my mind a lot lately and I am going to look at Sharon's blog and check it out. I need a financial challenge as I've kind of plateaued and could be doing more to get more money into savings. <br /><br />I'm glad you posted this today as while reading it I realized that I should do it too.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15943812281623696381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4835856675332706410.post-48299815461256917122011-01-24T05:11:36.052-08:002011-01-24T05:11:36.052-08:00look at you! you are doing great! my rules will ...look at you! you are doing great! my rules will include having one errand day per week - if we need something else, dh goes by an aldi on his way home from work,he will get stuff if needed. I will also keep my misc spending down to a min for the month... looking forward to it!

I'm cutting my misc spending and reducing my grocery and gas money. I will be relying more on Michael in February too - for helping to pay for things and to whip up some amazing soups and stews for very little money. Oh here's one thing - I dont know how much meat you eat but we are definitely eating less and going with more veggie type dishes. Beans are a lot less $$ than meat around these parts anyway.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02803104035204416080noreply@blogger.com
