Have to spend 5.00 on meds today, but I get that back with FSA account (flexible spending account, or cafeterial account.)

Anyway, no other money out.  Well, since I am at the drug store, if they have skim milk, I might pick some up.

Will post later!  ;-)

No money out today.  Was planning to grocery shop today (and really need to!) but DS is sick so not going to go today.  That gives me a spend free day at least!

Hi everyone,

No money out today.  I did take DS to the doc however like DMC, I have a health savings account that picks up the tab.  I'll probably pick up some Gatorade for him when I get his prescription later. He doesn't have the flu, just a nasty stomach bug and has been cleared to go back to school tomorrow.

Have a great day.

Hi all,

Raining cats and dogs and I love it.

Spent 6.99 today but 5.00 of that was for meds, so really only out 1.99 for milk.

Made up a big pot of potatoes and peppers and had that for dinner and more meals this week.

No plans to spend the rest of the week!

well spent $33 on 4 webkins today.  were on sale.  had promised the kids so since the store was closed yesterday got them today.

Good morning,

Today will be a no spend day.  I actually might make an extra 20.00 from selling something.  Yesterday I made 20.00 and I paid cash when I bought my meds and milk last night, I love that!

I think I am going to use cash for whatever I might need for the rest of the month, no debit card!

My no spend days have made it possible not to have any overdraft so far this month!  YAY.  I have had a few lately and it has scared me.

I have actually been saving some money this month from some sidework too!

So... no spend day!

Good job, DMC!

Yesterday ended up spending a little.  Ran out of Tylenol for DS since he still had a fever and was sick.  DH also grabbed some frozen food for us for dinner.  And he picked up milk for me too.  I don't know what the exact total was but it was about $20 for the meds, food, & milk.

Today will be no spend, actually should earn some money!  DS being home has given me lots of time to work!  Using up potatoes and onions that I have to make potato cheese soup and will also make some bread to go with it.  Lots of carbs!!

Not so fast... Um... ended up getting off work early and going for parent / teacher conference and then I took dd to mall.  UH OH!  We both got some new clothes and I got DD some fake ugg boots and guess where... Pennys!  My favorite store in the world.

Anyway, blew too much money... but DD couln't be happier and what is done is done.

Tonight came home and had breakfast for dinner and it was a hit!  More of that in our future.  Will pick up some bacon and potatoes and there ya go.  Wow, didn't realize dd would enjoy it as much as I did.

Okay, so not a no spend day, but tomorrow, back on the wagon!

Today, I had to make out a check for 25.00 for the room mothers at my DD school.  So money out there, but no other accept bills.

I will be taking a few things back to the store that I bought for me yesterday this weekend.  Can't take anything back from DD, she loves them and has so much fun last night and today.  I ask you, how can you possibly say no to that?  I am wrapped around her finger!

Paid one of my credit cards in full today before I could change my mind, I wrote out the check, put it in the seal envelope and stamped it.  Will go out when due, so I need to be extra careful to afford that payoff.

Tonight dinner from home and no need to go to the store for anything!

DMC, This may help you with your no spend for a dinner when I worked at a bank there were all kinds of eating area's around and lunch out was usually a go.  After eating at so many places one dish I remember is called Chicken Little Fries you take lettuce put it on a plate add french fries top with chili sour cream and shredded cheese so if one day you just have a little of these items it would probably make a meal for you and dd to all of us we called it a meal within it's self maybe it would be a  way for you to use up some of your stuff and have a no spend for you dinner.
