FANTASTIC! I have it on my to do list to try a no-buy February so this fits great! (You guys run it all year right?...)
I'm new to the Dis as a member- been creeping them for years lol I'll be back in february!

 

[pigletto]

I'm hopping in late to this months no buy thread for some accountability!
Why? Because I have the winter blahs, hubby is away all week, I'm bored (despite having a thousand things to do) and lonely. I have an itch to shop online or buy things and I don't need a thing. So rather than do that.. I'm jumping into the challenge to stay on track!

So we'll start from today and set a goal of 8 No Buy days.

1/19..no buy #1 (by the skin of my teeth lol)
1/20...no buy#2 (going to call it now)

GREAT! Welcome in advance. We do it for the entire year, but we do a new thread for each month...so look for the February one at the end of January!!

Welcome! And good job finding a way to keep yourself from scratchin' that itch!! I always find things waaaaay easier when accountability is involved! Good luck with the rest of the week/month!!

15/20 No Buy Days So Far

Not the same as No Buy, but I haven't ordered out food since 12/31, which is quite awhile for me. If I can make it an entire month, that's a pretty big savings over a normal month.

Not the same as No Buy, but I haven't ordered out food since 12/31, which is quite awhile for me. If I can make it an entire month, that's a pretty big savings over a normal month.

My coworkers tried to convince me to go out for drinks with them tonight (which we actually do quite often), but I said no because I have some goals I would like to meet this month. Now that I've explained it, I'm hoping they'll try to encourage me.
