Hello, my name is Brandy. I spent $0 today.


I was a good girl today and stayed home so that I wouldn't spend any money just because. We didn't need anything from the store so there was no reason to get out other than boredom. I was proud of myself.

Good job! Can't get much better than that (unless you returned something )

If only I could just hold on to the money when I return something. I usually use that as an excuse to buy something I don't really need.

My name is Brandy and I spent 22 dollars on printer ink and paper. I also bought cd-r's for my computer and spent 4.00 on those. But I did get a free ice cream cone for oldest ds thanks to the Mcdonald's trick or treat coupons! Kim, it's a good thing you didn't ask how much I spent all weekend then I'd really be ashamed!

Hello, I spent around $55 today ($25 DD's share of basketball tournament fee, $28 admission for our family to watch the basketball tournament). It could have been so much worse but we always take our own snacks and drinks.
