I will tell you that I run the numbers on a daily basis. The task of saving $2,000 dollars a month for the next 7 months is daunting – to say the least.
I just tallied up the amount of money I spent on food this week alone and it was over $86 dollars! That to me is ridiculous. So I’m having to cut back, here are some ways that I am trimming (well, lets be honest, SLASHING) my expenditures.
1. NO EATING OUT. This is really hard for me. Ben is great at it. Give him some rice and beans and a little Tapatio and he will be golden, me on the other hand, I crave good food. So this entails planning my lunches (and having simple lunches because expensive grocery trips are not good either) and planning dinners. Time to get creative.
2. Take the bus at least three times a week. This is easier said then done, because I hate the bus route from here to work. It is awful.
That is all I have time to write because I have to run off to my second job!! I hate this right now.
