We should go shopping together. It would be disasterously fun. 
Is it bad that I don't balance my checkbook either? I'm not irresponsible with money but I've never been able to keep track of what I spend or write it down.
Re: * jcam *
Checkbook? What's that??
We use our debit cards and have never balanced the checkbook. Ever.
Dude, the stores wouldn't know what hit 'em. It would be seriously dangerous, but seriously fun!
I use my debit card exclusively too... I have heard of people balancing that... so who knows!
Like I said in the previous thread, I don't have anything to budget so I don't... maybe if my student loans didn't dictate my life, but they do...
I've actually been really good about shopping- I went last weekend and used up a bunch of gift cards! It was very rewarding
. I just focus on being savy with sales and deals rather than anything else.
I have tried to implement a budget for DH when he goes out with friends drinking... that's the only money suck I see.
Oh I love getting gift cards, guilt free shopping!
I am a fraction of the shopper I used to be. I had a hard time with it at first, but I'm okay now
