I’m out of town for the weekend but didn’t want to forget to be accountable for my spending, so I got all fancy and scheduled this post ahead of time.
Let the fanciness begin…
- $376 car payment – Corolla
- $47 internet
- $112 utilities
- $157 State Farm – car insurance
- $400 Chase
- $77 Sprint
- $500 ING savings
I’m looking forward to next payday when I can put another chunk into savings!
I spent Saturday brunching and shopping with my friend Meagan of Sarafina’s Kitchen and had a delightful time. We both exhibited admirable self-restraint while in Sur La Table, Coach, and Tiffany & Co.
- $18 Petco
- $38 gas
- $46 Walmart
- $46 oil change
- $15 brunch
- $6 Anthropologie
- $31 Sur La Table
- $30 Tiffany & Co*
How was your weekend?
*Don’t freak. I just had a bracelet cleaned and picked up some silver polish. But I was eyeing a diamond necklace.

The weather is beautiful, the fridge is full of fruits and veggies, and I’m ready for a new week.
- $125 Chase
- $10 donation
- $103 grocery
- $14 vet
Do you have big plans for this week?
