I'm pretty frugal about our clothes so it would be nice to build up a nice wardrobe 1 item at a time. jedeve on "If you had an extra $300 per month..." https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-extra-300-per-month#post-1656198 Sat, 24 May 2014 08:29:54 +0000 jedeve 1656198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @sandy: I always joke to DH that if I ever decided to SAH (I work 3x/week now) that I would get a job that makes enough just to pay for a house cleaner!

It's just going toward general savings since we have no debt other than mortgage and already max out retirement funds. It'll probably eventually end up going toward house updates. sotofamilia on "If you had an extra $300 per month..." https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-had-an-extra-300-per-month#post-1656138 Sat, 24 May 2014 07:11:05 +0000 sotofamilia 1656138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Pay it towards the principal on our house.

If I had to spend it, I'd use it on clothes for us both and makeup/beauty treatments for me. We don't have babies yet.
