Stop wasting money

I need to stop wasting money on fast food. I need to just stop being lazy and go to the grocery store and buy stuff that’s actually worth eating.

I’m in school full-time, and my dude and I have plenty of bills coming in each month, including 2 car payments. We’re both working like crazy, and I’d like to see all of our hard work go towards something awesome, like a trip, rather than wasted on Taco Bell or stuff we don’t need.

I need to create (and stick to) a budget. Hmmmph.

EDIT
I’ve created my budget on mint.com; now it’s merely a matter of sticking to it. Psssh, I’ve got this in the baaaag.

I’m getting better at this. I keep track of everything that I spend and really think before I buy something.

instead of buying junk and things whenever i think i want them i WILL NOT DO IT. I have a book which i have cut out lots of pictures from travel brouches of places i want to go and whenever i want to spend money i’ll look through this book and think nah, i really would rather go to all these places than have a whatever.

In one week I will be only earning about 1/5th of what I get while I am happy that I won’t be working ad much (more time to study) I need to watch my spending.

I’m actually getting better at this. When I got paid last week, I really organized my money. I bought a couple of things for my nieces (which I don’t consider “wasting” money anyway). I haven’t really spent money on myself at all, except for a hair cut which I desperately needed and that wasn’t expensive anyway :)!

I have been doing quite well at not wasting money I have stoped buying a keno ticket only a 2.40 lotto for saturday.

I was having 1 coffee each morning and that was costing me $3.80 so instead I am going to put my $3.80 into a money box which I don’t open. It is amazing 3.80×5 is $19 wow that is a lot of money

I really need to stop wasting money at work. I normally take my lunch and snacks from home. I’ll probably get a craving for chocolate or something and even though I have lots of snacks at my desk, I go to the vending machine and buy a ridiculously priced bar. Today I bought a booster juice. It’s $6.05 and while it’s healthy and yummy, I don’t need to waste the money. It’s Friday…I’ll try to be better next week.

I havn’t spent much money this week only money on coffee which was $3.80×2 = $7.60 So not to bad will try to not use eftpos anymore though only cash
