Extra money? What do you use it for the most?

I find that when I have extra money that I use it to pay little bills or to buy something that I have been wanting for a long time. I also use my extra money for purchasing Christmas presents or birthday presents. I do not depend on extra money to pay for my large bills like rent, electric, or phone bills. I might use it for buying a food item that I would not normally splurge on. What about you? How do you use extra money that you have earned? Do you save it up to spend on a special item?

I'm on a very low income so my offline earnings are either saved or used to help me out with unexpected bills or emergencies. I'm saving for a cruise next year and another car, both big money goals. My online earnings usually get me gift cards which I use for buying clothes and undies, gifts, or things for the garden, like plants or tools.

Oh! I do like the beauty products like nail polish and when I have a little bit extra, I will splurge on a bottle or two of a new color.

Extra Money? I've not had that in a year! When I did it was spent on things I wanted or felt I needed, as well as gifts for others. I like to give to my friends, and so when I have extra money it's not unlike me to buy things or help pay for things for them.

The next time you ind that you do have extra money, let me be the first friend in line for you to buy things for. I do enjoy it when people get things for me that I would not normally buy for myself without feeling guilty over it.

I used to use the money on here to buy christmas gifts, but right now i am kind of in survival mode. I do not get paid again until Sept. 10 because of starting a new job coming up in August. in the mean time I am quickly depleting what little savings I had from last year. I will work for 4 weeks, having to pay child care before I get paid the first time, so I will be playing catch up for a few months.
