How MM was your weekend?

Friday - $66 at the grocery store

Saturday - $12 at the grocery store again.  Forgot few items. 

Sunday - $13 apple picking

 

Total - $91.  I am way too excited about this! 

Re: How MM was your weekend?

  • Not MM AT.ALL!

    Friday - $0

    Saturday - $700 on a new desktop since my laptop fried.  $40 dinner out.  $100 on bras for me.  $120 Walmart for groceries and H got stuff to start washing our cars at home instead of going to the car wash. 

    Sunday - $80 at a 31 bag party. 

    Total: $1040 EEK!  Spending freeze starts NOW.

  • Not MM at all, but it was pretty inevitable. $189.00 at Target for a bunch of expenses we'd just been putting off (including a new yoga mat, new running shoes for my husband, new mega-sized bottles of Zyrtec and Advil, etc) and then $60.00 during the weekend dining out & delivery. Here's hoping for a better weekend coming up!
  • Pretty decent I would say.

    Friday: Worked all day, then baked all afternoon = $0

    Saturday: Went to a wedding (budgeted for the gift, bought a drink) = $104

    Sunday: went to the casino with my parents, only spent $5, then went for ice crem, $4

    Total: $113

  • We did pretty good down here.

    Friday Night $0, I stayed in while DH was at work

    Saturday $20 at Costco (we realized we needed honey for our next batch of wine, actually peach mead, and figured it'd be easier/cheaper to buy in bulk). Spent most of the day working on our wine-making and painting the back deck.

    Sunday $45 at Walmart for a few groceries/personal items, $5 at Starbucks for a Pumpkin Spice Latte. H was working OT again so I was on my own and mostly just did some work around the house.

    Total = $70

    Decent

    Friday

    $ 0 - Had a gift card left from Christmas that paid for going out to eat

    Saturday

    $20.00 - Dinner & dessert (ice cream store) while watching a movie on our ipad outside (rental from itunes thanks again to gift card) by firepit

    Sunday

    I take it back, it was one of our best weekends yet. We still went out to dinner (twice), watched a movie and spent time together & only spent $20.00 over the course of the weekend
