Hello, my name is Kim and I spent $66.00 today on:
$43 parts to repair gas weedeater
$20 Sonic for dinner
$3 for carb cleaner at Walmart for weedeater

**BUT, I did not spend anything on eating out Friday night or lunch today and dinner will be provided tomorrow at Church. The bed frame I so desperately wanted, I passed up AGAIN.

I spent $2.15 on 2 pairs of reading glasses of dh. He has a different prescription in each eye, so he's going to pop the lenses out and switch them.

I also spent $37 dollars on 10 + educational videos (haven't counted them), a halloween costume , a pair of jeans, a dress with matching jacket, and a sweater for dd, a shirt for ds, a pair of pants for myself, 8 new toothbrushes, as well as several books and a stuffed animal for oldest dd.

Hello, my name is Addimom. I spent $108 today on groceries.

(We also went to Lowe's and bought some stuff. I'm not going to count that b/c I don't have a clue how much it was. That's a good defense/excuse, right? )

Hello, my name is Jen and I spent $20 on gas so I could drive out to the farm to help my husband track a deer.

I did however bake a loaf of white bread, a loaf of cinnamon swirl bread, boil a chicken and make a gallon of stock, skim almost half a cup of chicken fat off (used for cooking with some things instead of butter), and used half of the stock to make homemade chicken and dumpling soup, so I'm pretty happy with myself

I was very bad today. But I got some Christmas shopping done. Traded in a pair of jeans at Sears for a new pair and got my self a nice picture frame for new pictures of the boys. I was bad but I had tons of fun.

I did use one 25% off coupo at HL and used $6 worth of coupons at another store

Hello, my name is Karen and I spent $63 today on a new pair of work boots for hubby. His 1 year old Timberland's totally split in half across the entire width of the sole. Ridiculous

I spent $30 at Target. I bought a nursing bra (sort of needed), nursing pads (definitely needed) and a new shirt (not needed, but only $4 so I won't feel bad).

I also used a gift certificate to buy lunch, and did NOT pay a copay for my follow up at the instacare.

My name is Vicki, and I've spent $178 so far today without leaving home. I ordered 2 pr. of shoes, a pr. of boots, a blouse and a nightshirt. Later when I do leave home, I'll have to get gas in the car and milk. On the upside, I declined DH's offer to take me to lunch. We'll eat at home and save a bit.
