Nan, I know. We got side tracked by cheap bday goodies. I'm so mad! I have to go to walmart tomorrow to see if they have gloves or mittens still. So I will get tape. I need it to wrap my orders! Ugh!
 
Tape is the top of the list.. do NOT attempt to look for the mittens/gloves until the tape is in the cart!!!! :) Good luck on your mission!!

Today will be a no buy day!!!

I think that has got to be the most frustrating feeling ever. I know, I do it ALL the time. DH always says I am the only one, so I am at least glad to know that is not true. I hope you actually remember the tape today; I've been known to go 3 or 4 times to get x & come home with a,b,y & z each time, but still no x! Happy tape shopping today!

Yesterday was a no buy day.
Today I spent $92 and change at the grocery store.
Wednesday I will be spending $400-500 at the truckload sale.
Can't beat 96 cents per pound on drumsticks and 99 cents per pound on thighs. I will by enough hamburger, pork chops and chicken to last 45-50 meals.
 
Doing pretty good this month.. with the bitter temps I go out long enough to drop the DS12 off and pick DS12 up from school..... so I don't spend money...

I met my goal of 12 No buy days and will actually exceed it! :woohoo:
 
I am not doing so well this month. Lots of expenses. :rolleyes2 I've been meaning to post my numbers, but I haven't gotten around to it.
 
UGh, totally blew the month, DH had to buy a new cell phone this weekend.

So I need to go back to a no buy day for the rest of the month, except for Thursday. Picking up a used Expression from a friend.
