I had never done this before, but I wanted to make a rather large purchase + did not have the extra funds (the purchase was definitely a WANT not a NEED). By means of a major purge I was able to exceed my $$ goal by selling unwanted + unused items on Craigslist + Ebay.

Now we have less STUFF to deal with + with that extra $$ we went to Lowes + the Habitat Resale store for some home improvement/ winterizing items.

Wait — you were serious about that?!?!?

Just kidding…I’m rocking the challenge.

But what else would you expect? (Don’t answer that).

I guess your credit card is already on the freezer, right?

Saving X Spending is a mental game. Would be great to hear at the end of the week what psychological phases you went through, and how you dealt with them.

Good luck!

How ironic you bring this up now. I was just thinking of trying a week of “Live like a broke college student”. Of course I just bought lunch today. Not off to a good start.

I look forward to the end results of your experiment.

PS – I see you are only doing it til Friday. Does that mean you will make up for it on Saturday with Halloween paries looming?
