  • I could stand to do this too.
  • We could use it like a help line too... tag posts with "SF" for Spending Freeze

    Title of the post: SF: HELP!!!

    Body of post:  I just got a Coach outlet 70% off sale!  Talk me off the ledge!

  • MB...back away from the sale...that sale is not something you want to partake in...how will your Vera bags feel if you bring in a new COACH friend?...the answer is not so good, why would you do that?

    Please imagine that this was all said in a very soothing, hypnotic voice...perhaps with a watch waiving in front of your face or a red and white swirl spinning in front of you Smile

  • I will keep you all in check ;)  I HATE spending money and rarely buy things not needed.

  • I'm putting a clause in my agreement that says BABY CLOTHES DON'T COUNT.
  • I am down! We are seriously trying to beef up our savings!

    I'm still gonna bring this one to the jury, with evidence of what I may have or may have no spent on Sam recently.  But also, we do have a separate budget allotment specifically for Samma, so that may be my saving grace...

    Ha, nicely worded, I would just say I'm cheap lol. I dont get joy out of buying myself things, it usually just makes me feel bad. I love watching our savings account build up. We set a goal the beginning of last year to pay off my medical bills (a lot due to my health problems) and get $5,000 extra in our savings account by the beginning of this year. Well, with not spending on material things we paid off all my medical bills ($6,000) and all our CC's in 6 months. We also exceeded our savings goal by the set time frame. That's what makes me happy :)

  • I'll be down too- but I had a closet pare down on Monday so I need to buy a few sweaters tonight too.

    How long are we talking here?  Because if I get down 15lbs, I also want to be able to buy my nail polish rewards.

    Rewards are understandable I think... when I hit my WW goal I'm getting a Keratin treatment :)

  • I am NO help and should not even open your posts.

    I sent MB the super secret Vera sale. I bought stuff from the Coach sale and I convinced Ames that she needed stuff from the KS sale.  I was trying to win over JA to fork out $450 for a super cute bag.

    I am your poison.
