I moved over the weekend. I really have to watch every single penny that I spend. Sure there are a few things that I need…
Trash Can for Kitchen
Lightbulbs
Night Lights
Batteries
Shower Curtain Liner
But none of those things do I need to drop everything I am doing and run out and purchase. I am sure while I am at Wal-Mart buying those things I will find 5 other items I “need”. So I have opted just make due with what I have.
I could justify running out and buying any one of those items but I am not. I am going to leave that money in my account because right now… I don’t know what my future holds.
Think about all of the misc. items that you purchase. $3.00 here $5.00 there. It isn’t a lot of money but it sure ads up.
When you pay a $35.00 return check fee because your account is $3.00 short… you wish you had that three bucks in your account.
I was tempted to stop by Chick-fil-a on the way home for dinner but I thought about $6.00 dollars of cold hard cash coming out of my pocket and I changed my mind.
I quickly added up what $6.00 a day was over a month and I came up with $180.00.
I would rather save up those $6.00 bucks and buy something that is worth $180.00.
I challenge you to see how many days you can “go without!”
