sooooooooo my mom told me that I spent $568 this year on back to all of my school shopping (jeans, tops, socks, underwear, backpack, etc) . YES i realize that's half of $1000 & i just got slapped by reality that i need to seriously cut back on my shopping =T
is anyone else on cB a shopaholic? if not, how do you guys NOT spend? for lent i gave up shopping & that worked, but only because i barely went to the mall... i'm gonna start to not bring my card anymore... hopefully that works. edit: by card i mean debit card.. but thats still the same thing in terms of SPENDING lol. i just don't bring it with me anymore... alllll cash now. |

avoid credit cards. Thats the best thing you can do since usually people think "oh theres a lot of money on this no worries!"
Bring cash with you. Sure its more of a burden but then you can set your own limits on things if you only bring a certain amount of cash. Also if you pick out clothes or stuff think to yourself "its cute but would i wear it a lot?" |
