Never underestimate how much money you can save just from not buying a few things. Currently, I am still on my mission: Send Jeannie to the Beach. Of course, I can't really afford to go, but sometimes you just must take a break. There are things I really want to buy, but I just won't purchase them for now. I've created a little list of things I really want, but I am currently living without:
Shower gels on sale at Bath & Body Works - $3 a piece
New MP3 Player - $30
New beach towel - $10
New CD - $15
Basically, if you add all of this together, I am saving around $60 just by not buying some items I really want. I am instead using older products and simply dealing with it. I have to remember the goal and continue:
Some people may say I am frugal, but they are just being polite. I am outright stingy. Each day I try to find new cheap ways to live. It may not be for everyone, but it is for me... unless I win the lottery soon. Then I am going for a shopping spree at Walmart. So please join me in my thrifty journey through life.
