The other day as I was driving home, I was craving a burger from a place that is the king of whoppers (the place was on the way home) but then started to think about how much it cost. It was just a couple of bucks for the junior version of this burger. But then I thought about food I had at home, but then thought about how tasty it was to have the burger. The urges was overwhelming me! I then thought about the baby that is on the way. So I decided not to buy the burger and instead, put the $2 into the piggy bank we have for the baby.

Having a baby on the way is helping me save a lot. I used to be an impulse buyer, no matter if something was $2 or $200.
