my job is ok not amazing, i just know how to budget thats all.. all my life people wonder how i do it.. i dont know myself..i swear... i can say, i dont live week to week... i have great parents that always buy me stuff, well mom of course . landed myself a nice job, in the union for 17 years and im ok thank the good lord above.... i do ok for myself.... just spend entirely too much on nonsense. i so also give to charities so im not cheap , and always think about everyone else when i do shop.... no one is deprived when it comes to me shopping, except me... im cheap on myself... feel guily when i shop for myself.. |
I use to shop and shop and shop...You know the old saying shop till you drop......well I did. Then one day it smacked me in the face and I had to stay off EBAY, stay away from the stores as I had way way way too much stuff. So now I have controled it and don't hardly ever shop anymore. |
I could use a little help as well. I just checked my credit card statement and I'm in shock! I sent a very big payment 2 months ago and I've pretty much almost spent what I paid off. I just can't help myself. And you know what? I have not gotten anything for myself. All that was spent was for the kids, house, pool, Gus, and eating out. All those little charges sure do add up! I'm going to have to pull a fast one to try and hide this one from Tim! |
Oh my gosh!!!!:eek: I felt like I was reading about myself in your posts. I do the same thing. Just about everyday I am receiving an email from Kohl's...so I have to look to make sure I am not missing a "bargain". My husband says I can't go into a store without touching everything in there...I might miss a good deal if I don't look! My frig, freezer and pantry are packed full...but things usually expire before I have a chance to use them....but when I bought it--it was on sale at a good price. My family and friends are just amazed at all the food...but I have trouble finding things to fix!?!?!?!?! So if you find out how to stop....let me know. |
I have the exact same problem, and the bad part is I don't know where all the money goes. Coffee shops and restaurants I guess. I wish I had walls and walls of clothing to show for it but nooooo... I mean I pay all my bills on time and we have no debts, car payments or anything like that, but sometimes I think back at all the money I have spent, and I am like that's a brand new car right there... I wish I could just forget about my wallet for about a month and try to save some money. Perhaps someone will make a rehab for us, and that's where we will pour our money??? |
Gina- you could always set up automatic deduction from your paychecks and have some money put into a savings account. That way, you never have access to the money in your paycheck- spend the remainder until your hearts content and you're STILL saving money!! I like to do this- I never miss the money because I never see it. And it's really too bad you don't live closer to me... we're constantly running out of TP! We'll use napkins for a day or two until one of us remembers to get some at the store!:rolleyes: |
:) OK lexi..do this all the money you spend on clothes do something very nice with, send it to me to buy a female yorkie companion for my Rems......lol.......... other than that option i have no other suggests other than KEEP SHOPPING!! its fun!! :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) |
Here's a great credit card tip that my mom gave me: Don't ever put anything on your credit card that won't be around when the bill comes. Plus, gas is so expensive as it is, I wouldn't want to pay for the gas and then have to pay the darn interest on that purchase, too. |
you guys are cracking me up... my credit cards are paid off each month.im good that way, i pay no interest, im no sucker.. my b/f just told me i have a sickness... i might have a sickness, but have no debts except my mortgage and taxes.. ha ha ha.. jokes on him.... im freeeeeeeeeee.... i was just online in target, walmart, k-mart, khols again this morning, for what, who knows just browsing to see if i saw anything i might want... he still wants to marry me... so then i will spend his money...he he he.. |
