Get on Santa's NICE list with a November No Buy!!

[disneyhorselover]

Ok I think I've decided I'm going to go for 21 no buy days-trying to limit my spending to a week!

Also, I didn't actually spend on the 4th...must have had 4 on the brain still when I typed that.

2-$0
3-$0
4-$0
5-$0
6-$0
7-$0
8-$0 (To be fair, this day I went to dinner and a concert, but spent cash that I had previously saved up for this outing, so it still didn't come out of my month budget.)
9-$0
10-$0 (bought a coffee with the leftover cash from the concert, but still didn't touch my budget!)
11-$11.03 (some new toys and chew treats for my dog)
12-$0
13-$0
14-$0

Spent $11.03/100
No buy days 12/21
