Cash is Awesome

October 29th, 2010 at 08:18 pm

The past two weeks we have been back to using cash for everything except gas. I'm proud to say that the cast lasted the whole two weeks.

It was a little rough after the first week. I didn't start week two with as much cash as I had expected. Plus with the fair and a trip to the pumpkin patch, I had doubts that I could make the cash last. But it did. For the first time in a long time, we actually had money in the account on payday and didn't touch savings.

These past two weeks I haven't worried about money. Using cash gives me hope we can finally make our money work for us and start saving more.

    It helped us reign in the "stupid" stuff - the $1.69 coffees at gas fill-up, the odd candy that DH would purchase when the child(ren) were with him. I also was surprised how much I was able to improvise within the grocery budget - we eat breakfast food (waffles/omelettes) at least twice a week for dinner/lunch. Glad to see that you were able to do it. It does get easier!
