This month marks the most I have spent in a long time. Good thing I have 30 for 30 next month. I did return the Pink Flat and got back 11.12. I also sold some clothes to Plato's Closet and made 12.05. So I actully only spent 27 dollars.Which is what I have been spending every month. So here to next month. NO spending. Just saving.
For my saving this month is 186.06 ~ This my overall savings on everything I brought this month. Food, Clothes, Makeup and What else Hubby brought.
How I do this is. I use coupons, buy thing on sale and the biggest one is SHOP THE CLEARANCE RACKS. Don't be afraid of them.
2009-$2,010.25
2010-$4,385.63
2011-$186.06
Hi! I have found you through Kendi Everyday's blog for the 30 for 30 challenge which I will participating. I think this is great idea - keeping tabs on the spending and saving. Perhaps Ill try this for the month of February. Come check my blog out! http://www.nevermindandwhatever.com/

Besides the clearance racks, do you shop the thrift stores? Slender women like you can find amazing clothes in those stores. I'm a plus-size, so I can't find much, but every once in a while something nice shows up. You're spending for the month wasn't too bad. Good luck on the 30/30...I'm starting it Tuesday, the first. Love the way you dress.
ReplyDeleteTHANKS LADIES.
ReplyDeleteJOYCE~ I DO SHOP AT THRIFT STORE TOO BUT SOUTH FLORIDA DOESN'T HAVE ANY GOOD ONE. THEY CLOSED THE GOODWILL DOWN BY ME.
