Ending the Spending Freeze



Our spending freeze is finally over. At times I felt like I wasn't going to make it. I did fail a couple times but for the most part I spent NO money. Looking back, it wasn't as hard as I thought and I do think my spending habits have changed. I have learned that I don't need much, I just think I do!

For example today on the way home from co-op the kids asked for Wendy's and I almost did it, but then I thought about it and realized we had some leftovers and could get dinner together quickly and we saved $10!!

Great job! Any ideas with what to do with the money you saved?

I'm thinking we'll use it to buy our homeschool curriculum for next year!!
