Re: Official Budgeting Challenge Thread

We started buying frozen veggies since they're so much cheaper. Frozen blue/strawberries as well to make smoothies. We have white rice w dinner, bc it's so cheap.

We agreed to not even think about putting more money into the house for 3 years. This prevents thinking about it and being tempted to spend our tax return.

Limiting purchases on all clothes, it's so hard not to buy for ds but we have just enough for him. We don't buy clothes for ds 2 bc he has a lot from ds 1 and we know we won't reuse them after he outgrows.

We bought warmer blankets from century 21 for this coming winter so we can keep the heat lower.

For Christmas we only give for kids, no adults bc it gets too out of hand!

Dh and I do not exchange gifts, he bought me a 300 dollar gift for our anniversary, it's going back to the storeChat Icon

My hair gets cut 2 times a year bc it's so pricey.
