It's an eye-opener, but very helpful for getting on task where money is concerned. <br /><br />Good luck!Stephanie Meade Greshamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08644887349270499889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-873476411565756619.post-56850878669195329732011-01-24T18:46:55.835-08:002011-01-24T18:46:55.835-08:00My biggest problem with this is when I'm AT th...My biggest problem with this is when I'm AT the store - whether it's grocery shopping or whatnot... usually Target is the main culprit. I have to sit and talk myself out of things. I'll think "Oh, it's just $XX!" But then I have to stop myself and think, "But do I NEED it? Can I live without it? I really want to buy a house... is this more important than my own house?" I'll usually stand there contemplating for a few minutes until I put whatever it is back on the shelf. Or sometimes I'll put it in my basket, but before I check out I go back over everything and I'll eliminate stuff then with the same process. <br /><br />It's simple, but it seems to work for me. <br />I don't really have a problem with online shopping, it seems easy for me to avoid purchasing things online (although I browse a LOT)... but I would assume it would work the same.Beth Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15431592516549886843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-873476411565756619.post-40191793108783980542011-01-24T17:15:24.836-08:002011-01-24T17:15:24.836-08:00I think you are making a great first step!!

Although I HATED It at first, I was able to pay it off all by myself! I just had to cut back on the "stuff". My first step was no longer buying my daily coffee on my way to work and I made it at home. That saved almost $12 a week right there.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01443417929886430937noreply@blogger.com
