Not as much as I should! If I could just stay away from Target, I'm sure we'd be fine

But in all seriousness, we'd have plenty of money if we could just get our other house sold! It's killing us to have to pay for two houses and utilities and so forth.

Nothing today but last week we paid off our credit card & switched to a lesser Direct TV package.

@.twist.: we have the "girl" version straw cup and divided plate girlfriend looooves her "mama cup"

I can't think of anything I did today.

@.twist.: Especially since I want 75% of the things in that store!

Our raises just kicked in this week, does that count? We don't change our spending so it will go in to savings.

Ummm nothing specific...but I didn't spend any money. Does that count?

@IRunForFun: ha, that's my answer too.

@.twist.: it's about grocery shopping! I do them for all different kinds of things. Its good for extra cash.

@.twist.: Well, I didn't set out to make it a no-spend day, I just happened not to need to buy anything! But I will pat myself on the back now, regardless.

I spent a bit on a couple bottles of loose leaf tea for work. It took me a good month plus to go through one. I'm working on my coconut oolong right now. It keeps me from buying coffee from Starbucks. I have a small Bodum electric kettle for at home to do the same.

I love Target and the Cartwheel app. It's been helpful in saving some money while shopping there.

@.twist.: It's the Target Cartwheel App where you can add a bunch of coupons in their app and scan them when checking out. I know a bunch of the Bee is addicted to it. I love it. I prepare it before a trip there to see if I can get deals and leave one spot open for possible other items while browsing.

I am now cooking dinner at 10pm even though I am really, really mad at my husband and have no interest in cooking for him. There is no way I am going to waste $15 worth of scallops!

@.twist.: we have pretty strict rules in our house for unexpected cash, otherwise we'd easily burn through it!

@.twist.: I love generics. We buy very few name brand foodstuffs in our house anymore. The Target Market Pantry line is awesome.

@.twist.: Yeah, Sarah wrap is a tough one. I think DH pushed to stick to brand name on that one too.

Hmm not much. I had to fill a prescription at Walgreens and while I was waiting I read coupon blogs and realized I could get a free eyeshadow between a store and a mobile coupon.

Saved another few dollars at the grocery store by using Safeway's just for u coupon app. That extra money might've gone to Ben and Jerry's though...I was feeling pretty sick at the store and not thinking my clearest!

What I need to do is call our lender and start adding a little extra to our mortgage payment since DH got a raise.
