No
Maybe after I've got a FT job, instead of three PT ones, and actually will have time to use it

also get some of that fiber bread with 5g of fiber per slice...and boneless skinless chicken breasts and salad and carrots and brocoli and protein powder and with that diet you would shread the pounds with regular exercise

[Edited on March 7, 2008 at 2:00 PM. Reason : and some of that super healthy cereal]

she gets naughty with her pilates body
and she thinks its so funny when her nose goes bloody
cause the blow's so yummy and it keeps her tummy empty
and makes her act more friendly

3/7/2008 2:00:28 PM

you should go get your hair cut and colored with me

3/7/2008 2:00:57 PM

I don't wanna spend the money on a haircut, and we both have hair too pretty to be ruining it with bye and bleach.

3/7/2008 2:01:42 PM

Ooh ooh I have a good idea w/ what to do with the money. Live as frugally as you were before, making minor concessions for things that you REALLY REALLY wish you could've enjoyed before, then dump the rest of the money into a high-yield savings account and wait until you've got enough to live off of for about 6 months before using more of your current income for expenses/fun.

It's my plan right now, though I'm currently in the frugal stage and trying to drift until summer (where I hope to get a good research job with my department). Not having money sucks so much that I'm just going to live for a good while like I don't have any until I have some big savings/a full time salaried position. Then I'll relax a bit.

3/7/2008 2:04:21 PM

Oh, no.

Step one: pay off my debt
It's not a lot, but dammit, it bugs me!

Very laudable. This should be what everyone does, but do they? No.

3/7/2008 2:05:37 PM

3/7/2008 2:06:26 PM

3/7/2008 2:08:18 PM

Eh, well I just don't want to have to economize on groceries like I am right now. A large portion of my budget goes to peanut butter and jelly sammiches, lulz.

When the budget gets this low I can make a lot of decisions that most people wouldn't make.

3/7/2008 2:15:29 PM

coupons, dude.

They really make a difference.

[Edited on March 7, 2008 at 2:18 PM. Reason : If you want, I'll go with you to Costco so you can get some other stuff for $RI]

3/7/2008 2:18:19 PM

Take a small example, take a ti-ti-tip from me
Take all your money, give it up to charity

3/7/2008 3:07:38 PM

^^ I use mommy and daddy for that right now (BJ's, Costco, Sam's). They're in Cary so it makes it a bit easier.

I haven't fallen into the coupon shopping habit yet, but I'm headed that way, haha.

3/7/2008 3:17:37 PM

Gotcha.

My folks used to have sam's, but they're dropping it for costco.

Coupons are FTW. Srsly.

thank you. i wish more women would realize this

3/7/2008 3:48:11 PM

I dont use coupons at at grocery stores, bfd about 35 cents

I use them at restruants whenever its like buy 1 get 1 or something of significant value

those entertainement books for charlotte have lots of great deals

3/7/2008 3:52:08 PM

^It really adds up. See the coupon thread in the lounge.

Also helpful is that I avoid using my debit card whenever possible. Since one of my jobs pays cash every shift, I keep a bit of cash out for day-to-day stuff, and live off that. What's in my checking account is marked for bills.

It's a lot more painful to hand over the cash that I can put a date, time, and place to when I earned it than it is to hand over my debit card

3/7/2008 4:32:36 PM

coupons yes. and sales. i basically only eat what is on sale with my vic or mvp card. i especially love buy one get one frees. at first i was like, but i don't need this much bread. and now i'm like, bread meet freezer.
