How common is it for you to go a day without spending any money?

It dawned on me it rarely ever happens. Granted it'll only be a few dollars here and there but I've found if I am out of my house I am spending money.

After I go food shopping and put gas in my car I can go days w/out spending a dime. I eat breakfast at home, pack lunch and eat dinner at home. So unless I need to pick up a last minute item for dinner I don't even touch my wallet during the week.

uncommon. Once in a while.

I'm out of the house during the week between 12 and 14 hours. I'm bound to spend something although I have carried all meals and snacks around with me.

During the week, it is rare that I spend money - other than online banking to pay bills, that type of thing.

I try to cut out the dollar here, dollar there as it really does add up. For me, I prefer to save this money and blow it on more expensive things - vacations, etc.

Same. I have this bad habit, where I like to go to Panera Bread in the am, to just relax and unwind a bit before I head into the craziness that is called work.

I don't spend any money a few days a week.. I bring lunch with me to work - maybe buy lunch from somewhere once a week. I spend on the weekends bc I go out but during the week, I rarely spend money.

pretty common, I go a few days a week without spending money. I food shop every few days for fresh veggies and stuff. I don't have too many days were I spend money on a whim. It is mostly planned spending.

Being off in the summer makes it hard. I have to really watch myself.

I actually challenge myself sometimes to go certain periods of time without spending money for a day.

I try not to spend money by bringing lunch and breakfast but it's hard during the summer because I have to have ice coffee in the morning so for now it's uncommon.

Only if I don't leave the house.
And even then it is likely I might buy something online.

Pretty much impossible for me. Even if it's just the $4.50 to get to and from work.

Hardly ever happens. A few days ago, I went a whole,day without buying anything and I was shocked. Chat Icon

We should do it more often.
