2 weeks with no spending?

August 3rd, 2006 at 06:10 pm

I'm one of those folks who needs to stay out of the store in order to not spend the money.
I was thinking of doing a two week no spend challenge for myself. I have done one week no spending with ease, but two weeks would be a challenge. The trick would be to plan and estimate needs carefully and buy the necessities once every two weeks. Also fill the gas tanks on the same day and of course, pay the bills. It would take a lot of planning and some will power not to run out and buy the first thing that breaks or runs out...but I think it would save me a lot of extra money. I think I am going to review my money file and see just how much is being spent in casual unplanned excursions and expenses.

    Look in the Discussion Forums under General Discussion. There's a thread titled something like "No Spending for one week...voluntarily?" where several people are setting no spending challenges for themselves. Most people did it last week but some are still in the middle and some are trying to continue for a second week. Come join us!
