How much do you each spend on treats or vices per week?
We never spend anything on treats or vices. There's no need to with my magic coupon binder. The principle is simple no coupon, no treat.
I buy the local paper on Sundays because it is full of coupons and offers, but I never actually read it. I get straight to clipping the coupons.
The only "luxury" we have is cable TV and high-speed Internet service. And we did 3 months of research before we bought our TV. Although I would argue that it is a necessity because I would be lost without the Internet. That is where I find most of my bargains. So, the cable has really paid for itself many times over.
