I think I did OK with my February spending. I just added it up. It was pretty quick because there were only 2 ACM receipts, one M's receipt, and 2 packing invoices from online orders. The scarcity of receipts is a victory unto itself:rotfl2: .
Anyway, here's how it breaks down:
ATG 714 and 5 rolls of adhesive: 61.87
Embossing heat tool: 12.50
Swap supplies: 58.45
Other: 15.54
My fellow BAN Wagoneers assured me that the ATG was OK because it will save money in the long run AND it falls into the adhesive category, which is allowable spending.
I bought the heat tool because I wanted to emboss on swap items, so I decided that was OK....plus, I used a 50% off coupon so I got it for a good price. Swap supplies are allowed on the BAN wagon, and the amount I spent includes buying stamps, embossing powder, and specialty paper. The stamps will last a long time, I have embossing powder left, and I ordered too much of the specialty paper but I had to since I wasn't sure how much I'd need. I can use the paper when I do our next Disney album, so it won't be wasted:).
The "other" is supplies I need to make thank you cards for DD#1's basketball coaches, and one little splurge. When I was ordering swap stuff I came across journaling genies and vanishing ink markers, so I spent $8 on those.
How'd everyone else do for February?
