Extra pay day and plans!

csuave · July 2015

Anyone else getting an extra pay check this month? If yes, what are your plans for it?

I get my extra pay tomorrow! It is not in the budget so we are allocating it to "fun" charitable giving. This will include buying tickets to an all you can eat ice cream event, tickets for a party cruise with buffet on the local sightseeing boat, dog walk for the humane society and a membership to the local conservatory.

This is all stuff we want to do anyway but if we were working out of the normal budget we would have to pick and choose. It is nice to be in position to use it to do all of these things.

Fun! I have to wait until October. We usually use part of it to pay six months of auto insurance up front and then the rest usually savings and debt.

H is! Sadly it's going to playing catch up from last month's spendiness. Some is also going to gifts and travel for two August weddings.

I have a third check tomorrow! We're just throwing it in our move money account. We have a contract (!) so now we're saving every penny we can until we close September 3. This third check does mean that I have an extra $100 allowance this month. I'll probably go bra shopping with that. Nothing exciting. Haha.

I beg to differ! Bra shopping is quite exciting.

This inspired me to look and see when my next three pay check month is - December! Couldn't come at a better time.

Our extra check is October too - H is paid every other Thursday, and I'm paid twice a month. It will all go to the DP fund!

Eh, my extra is in October too....I just hope we made our bonus next month for the quarter...we have a closing coming soon!

Yes--I get two 'extra' checks each year, but I use them to pay for my 6-month's car insurance. They always happen to fall around the same time insurance is due. It's nice to not have to budget for that bill!
