Actually, right now im in the middle of a 7 day test to spend NO money at all, other than gas for the car and any bills that are due.

I planned all my meals to be cooked at home, NO buying anything for 1 week.

Why do you hate America?











Actually, I've been bringing my lunch from home about 90% of the time for the past month or two. It's nice not spending $6 or more a day on lunch.

I dont hate america. I just already gave my money, they took it and gave it to banks.

I figured i'd hold on to whats left at the moment. ;D

Its just an excersize really. I have been pretty frugal overall. But it is good to practice planning ahead, and avoiding impulse buying.

Its funny how many times this week i thought about picking something up, then asking myself if i really need it.

I've been trying to tell Mrs. P that we really don't need to go on a Carribean cruize, even though it's only $250 per person. Yeah, it's a good deal, but it'd end up costing at least $1000 by the time all was said and done, and we really don't need to be spending that kind of money.

Tell Mrs. P I'll go with her!

It'll only cost you $500 then. :D

In case you guys are wondering I brought this up cuz there's a denny's commercial that says since the bank got bailed out that Denny's will bail you out. ;D

I've never like Denny's much.


Plus, when a good friend of mine died in High School a bunch of us kids went to Denny's together after her funeral, and I'm always reminded of that when I go there, which sucks. :'(

yeah, but the main reason I don't go there is that I don't like the food. I'd rather go to waffle house or even steak n shake if im in the "24 hour crap food" mood.
