    I do not think there is candy that I do not like- anyway, today was a no spend day. I have to buy gas tomorrow, but that should be it for money out.

    Chic, if you need medicine, that's not blowing money!

    I didn't spend any money today.  YAY!

    Actually won a gift certificate to starbucks for pumpkin we decorated.

    Okay, guys, tomorrow should be another no spender!

    ;-)  Good luck

    I agreed there is not much candy or food in general I don't like!  will have to raid the kids stash after halloween.  

    not a cheap day, physio $45,  van insurance, halloween carnival and probably get veggies for the work veggie plate.

    No money out today-a good thing since I'm pretty well tapped out for this pay period!  I'm also looking forward to a low key and low budget weekend.  Will have to buy some things like formula and also go to Costco for tp, cheese and a couple other things.  But other than that, I feel like spending is going to be back to normal for a bit now.  Will be buying pumpkins from the grocery store tomorrow so we can carve them tomorrow night.

    Thought that today was going to be a no spend day, but that's hasn't been the case.  Had to go to wally world this morning to pick up a few things I forgot when I grocery shopped earlier.  Less than $10.  Will also have to pick up an RX my dr will call in this afternoon. Results on my blood work not where he wants them to be so he wants me to take an additional medication until I see him again in Nov. for my annual physical.

    Tomorrow will also not be a no spend day. Last night DS#1 called DH in a dead panic.  He thought that he wouldn't need to submit his portfolio until after Christmas break (he is an art student) then he found out yesterday that he needs to have it ready next week.  Problem is all his paintings are still here at home.  DH  will talk to him later this evening and we will get a detailed list of exactly what he needs and I will be taking it to him tomorrow morning.  So, need to fill up my truck with gas so I can leave early in the morning.  Should only be about $30 since I have half a tank.  Then I'll have to fill it up again tomorrow afternoon when I get back since it usually takes almost a whole tank to drive down there and back.  Good thing he is only 2 1/2 hours away from home.

    No money out today... no spend, yay!

    I actually think that my deposits for my check might make it on the same page in the register, meaning I haven't been spending hardly any money in between paydays!  Yay!  That is a good thing.

    I didn't even have a co -pay today at doctor. Tomorrow, I have to get gas, but those things don't count on No Spend.  No spend to me, is not buying unneccessary things and stopping for things not needed.

    I have been wracking my brain to figure out how to cut more from my budget, but I am coming up empty.  Hopefully, I will get more computer business or get to work some OT at work, that would be GREAT!  I have lots to do!

    Okay, one more no spend day!

    Spending today but hopefully not too much.  Getting pumpkins from the grocery store to carve tonight (3 for $9.99) and also need a few groceries-will probably have tacos tonight, something easy and fun.  Will also figure out something to make tomorrow night for before we go trick or treating.  And need juice boxes for tomorrow's soccer game.  So will probably spend about $40 at the store today.  Got gas yesterday too.
