Re: The $20 challenge
Well, since DH and I give ourselfs 20.00 cash every week and the rest goes into the check book I have found several ways to make the saving plans come to pass.
See, DH gets all that is NEEDED fro mthe checkbook like gas and takes lunch etc. Myself too. But since we have been on such a tight super tight budget we saw fit one year to allow each of us 20.00 a week. for just us...We have paid to get into a baseball game or bought a costly drink or two but that is what it is about. Being able to do one thing that hasn't been crunched my the numbers so to speak. At present I have saved almost 1300.00
I am personally saving for a want! I think Dh wants a new rifle and he is saving for that.
See, dh and I haven't been able to buy any wants in forever. We never take a want out of the checkbook money. Kids earn there wants and buy that. We buy needs....
Needs only!
Ya know I have been trying to save for a curio cabinet for quite sometime. See, Want Not need! but your 20.00 challenge has got my mind a stirring!HHHHHMMMM Thanks
