If you set aside fun money what do you usually spend it on?
I usually get Starbucks, dunkin donuts iced coffee or chocolate!
-
Lately, it's been clothing, makeup and crafting/home projects. I need to do another no spend week!
-
clothes and home decor are my weaknesses
-
Stuff for my girls, makeup, books!
-
We don't really set "fun money" aside, but I can tell you right of the bat all that *would be* fun money goes to FOOD! I just cannot cook 3 meals a day everyday so any extra funds goes to feeding my sanity by picking up or ordering in dinner! lol
-
Lately its been baby stuff I want but don't need.
-
I have a weakness for home decor, make up, shoes & things I think Chloe needs.
-
Clothes for me and LO, and shoes...love shoes.
-
Makeup, work out clothes...
-
Books, Starbucks, and lunch.
-
Lately it's been magazines/books, makeup and clothes!
-
@regberadaisy: I save my fun money to put in savings or make extra debt payments (student loans usually). DH gets so mad - "that's not what fun money is for!!!"
But being more financially secure sounds way more fun to me!
-
Books and home decor and lots of wine:)
-
Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks comes out of my lunch money. There's a fast food Cuban restaurant that I can putchase a filling meal under $5 and still have a $4 Tall Mocha. I budget $10/day for lunch.
Fun money is for my getting my hair done, boot camp, and not-so essential toiletries like mascara. The rest of the fun money just goes into the I hate-to-see-my-checking account-low-so-here-is-my-feel-good-cushion.
-
Lululemon.... even though I KNOW it's extremely overpriced, I would live in the stuff day in day out if it weren't so expensive. I occasionally treat myself with something that's on sale
-
Fun outings with DS!
-
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: mascara is not essential?! I disagree!
-
@cmomma17: haha but see, if I used make up I would Def consider that a fun money expense!
-
@cmomma17: lol, I usually don't wear make up at all, so when I buy make up it feels like a splurge (strumming my fingers together with glee)
-
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I don't wear much, but mascara is a must! I could survive on mascara, Chapstick and a good moisturizer with SPF.
@regberadaisy: my DH tried that once! Didn't work out for him. Especially when I pointed out his shampoo is more expensive than mine, and that he has beauty needs too like shaving cream! -
We just started having actual fun money accounts! (Before this week we jut bought whatever whenever.. and shit was adding up quick!)
I'm going to buy a kobo mini I think for upcoming vacation! Mine will mostly be spent on clothes I think.. DH will probably save his up and buy bigger ticket items!
-
Starbucks, stuff for DS
-
Fabric, craft supplies, home improvement stuff, and lately, new makeup. All my supplies are running out at the same time so I am buying slowly so it doesn't seem like so much.
-
Lately, it's all been baby stuff I want but don't need, like decor for the nursery and cute clothes. Before it was craft supplies and home decor items.
