Has anyone ever had a no spend day you know where no money leaves your purse,wallet.I try to two or three days like this a week and just shop at home lol I actually find it fun to come up with meal ideas and to use up left-overs which may other wise get thrown out if I am alway at the supermarket which is just around the corner from where I live and is oh so tempting to just up and go there. So have you done the no spend day(s)

Oh yes, for three month ago I left the town to live in the country. I now live about ten minutes by car away from my town. We have no stores here and I only go to town for shopping milk, cheese, and some bread once a week. So I do not spend any money the other days. And I have saved a lot of money doing this. I go to town by bus. I shop monthly one time for grosser y, clothing, and medical pain killer´s and cal my sister up to take me home. It really save´s my account up. I do not miss living in town. I now have an apartment in a house, I am able to sit in my garden in the sunny days. I have a peace and quite god time here. I will never go back and live in a house full of strangers on the third floor. Never.

I do this a lot, but for me not to spend money I have to stay home, I can't help spending money when I go out, I just love shopping so to stay home does two things for me, stops me from spending and saves petrol and I guess it also gives me more time on Mylot...
