I’ve been spending money like it’s growing on trees. It all started innocently enough with a few online purchases and ballooned into a laundry list in just fourteen days.
- Replacement for my stolen GPS: $175
- Dress for a wedding: $120
- New summer dress: $50
- New summer blouse: $11
- Two new bras: $35
- A few nights of take-in: $50
- A new yoga DVD: $8
- Cleaning Services purchased through Living Social: $88
- Orange Roughy: $14 (I’ve always wanted to give it a try.)
I’m sure there are a few others that I’m missing, but that’s all I can think of off the top of my head. I seem to go through waves of spending. I’ll go weeks without buying anything and then all of a sudden I buy a bunch of stuff in a matter of days.
I almost never go to the mall, but somehow I’ve managed to travel there three times in the last two weeks. I don’t think that helped matters much. The search for DVDs on Amazon didn’t help either. I went looking for one thing and wound up with three others.

Ooops an expensive couple of trips.
Those Mall trips will get you every time, I,ve got one coming up shortly with my Daughter and Grandchildren, so I,ll leave my cards at home and just take the change in my purse.
