No Buy Month



This month Joseph and I have committed to have a "No Buy Month". Lots of our friends are doing this to see how much money we waste on impulse and boredom buying. We will only buy gas, groceries, co-pays, dinner out on Fridays nights (my night off), pay our regular bills, lunch money for Jake (if needed). This is only day number 3.

The scene- our house around 10pm lastnight. Joseph and Heather talking while watching AI with Jake.

Joseph: "Man pizza sounds really good! Is it too late to order a pizza?"

Heather: "Joseph we are in the middle of "No Buy Month, you cannot order a pizza or I'll tell on you. We have a pizza kit in the pantry."

Joseph: "Oh man, come on. You wanna make me a pizza?"

Heather: "No, I wanna go to bed."

5 minutes later...

Heather: "I need a pedicure. I think I'll go get one tomorrow."

Joseph: "No you won't. I'll tell on you.

Heather: "I won't tell if you don't tell!"

It's going to be a long month!

Hurry UP June!!
