Small victory!!!

Happymom · **Small victory!!!**

Dh and I have been trying hard to cut unnecessary spending (even before FTJ) and now waste anything. Well usually by mid month our bank account is practically empty. I got our bank statement today (which I usually hate, no I never balance the checkbook) and was I suprised!!! We still have over 3grand in there and tomorrow is payday!!

This may not sound like much to some of you, but some of you are with me and realize what a wonderful feeling this is!!! It is truly amazing what you can do by cutting little piddly spending

I am very happy for you.

However, I found it a little funny that you call a balance like that "cutting little piddly spending". What ever you are doing keep it up!! Hopefully someday soon I can have a balance like that too!!

WoW ~ Congratulations! That's a small victory ??

If I EVER had that much in my checking account they would need to call 911 to recisitate me!

Great Job!!

An extra 3 grand is NOT a piddly thing! Way to go!

I agree!! I would love to have $3000 in my checking account!!! We are also trying to cut out unecessary spending...(example eating out all the time) you wouldn't believe how much money we waste eating out all the time!!! Way to go!! Way to go!!!!
