we're going all the way

ellen and i are always complaining that we're poor. right after we've bought our latest pair of shoes or pants or cute purse. we shop a bit too much.

at least we got to the first step, admitting we have a problem.

so now we're challenging each other. no shopping for 2 months! thats pretty extreme and we know we're addicts. so just like dieters get that allowance for a slice of chocolate cake every now and then, we're giving ourselves an allowance. $75 per month of fun money. that's it. that's all we can spend on funstuff. of course we can still buy groceries and necessities as needed w/o cutting into our fun money. and also, limiting our dining out to 3x week. for some people, that a lot already. but considering how lazy i am... 3x is not enough.

challenge starts today. thru april 7. this is going to be good. good for me. right?

ugh. i'm still looking at stuff on ebay... just looking! and besides, i have my $75 discretionary fund...
