  • A different sort of challege.

    I'm just wondering if anyone is interested in a non diet related challenge. I'm working on improving my spending and saving habits. Does anyone want to join me in a "Spend Less/Save More" Challenge?

      Count me in! I'm going to go thru my expenses, and see what would be a 'reasonable' goal that i could reach if i could get rid of spending money on crap that i don't need.

        So where can we set up a thread specifically for this? What is your suggestion my MOD friend?

          ROFL I signed up! I bet there's something I could cut down even further, my allowance probably.

                  If you'll allow me to join, I'm sure there's a few cent around here I can still pinch harder! Hey, saving money might also be good for the environment, so this challenge is for multiple good causes. Maybe it could also include conqueing an addiction (to spending needlessly)?

                    So far, from the poll I have Miss Phode, Me, Bio, Sher80, Boonie Stomper and Lyssie interested.


                    Anyone else?

                        Sorry, I'm the only one that said no on the poll. It's not that I don't need dto spend less and save more but I just feel overwhelmed with everything else going on. "Good on yer" for taking this up though!

                              Bio, I read some of the stories on her website last night. Seeing those people claw their way out of bad financial situations motivated me even more to do this. There's something about seeing someone in a worse situation than me succeed that is really inspiring.
