How to spend less
It made me
in charge
 "Its becoming a habit- just keeping the wallet closed, most of the time.."
How I did it: Pure resolve. No more addictive/impulse buying- the need wears off after you change habits for awhile. No coffees, treats, snacks, Value Village sprees, drugstore/dollarstore non-neccessity shopping. YOU know, you just have to ask yourself, "Do I REALLY need this??" Lessons & tips: Just do it- I mean DON"T do it (spend your money) Resources: Nuttin |

I cooked at night, a turkey rice stirfry that lasted two days and a chickpea tomato soup and had a brought lunch every day this week. Also, I bought a one cup bodum coffee press and brought my own coffee and tea. The only thing I bought at work was a little container of milk- can’t stand that fake coffee milk.

Since that day that I decided to spend less, I’ve been doing great actually. I bought one blouse which cost a dollar and a birthday present to my friend also for a dollar and a card for my parents’ wedding anniversary (again a dollar). So it’s been 3 dollars in 4 days which is quite a good accomplishment for a weekend. :)

My downfalls
19 months ago
There are 4 things on what I spend ridicously lots of money.
#1. Clothes. My school is next to the town’s 2 best secondhand shops. Although it’s at least better than buying new and expensive things, it’s still an addiction as I go there almost every day.
#2. Books. Okay. Worthy investment.
#3. Food. ‘nuff said. Guess that’s why I can’t lose weight.
#4. Alchohol. 8-)
