Well, we went out to dinner last night and spent about $20. As I have mentioned, we eat out every night but Sunday and that is because the restaurant we liked is closed on Sunday.
My husband works 7 days a week usually and I consider this our date, every night. We sit next to each other and just talk!! We have cocktails and it is very relaxing.
Because we live in a dry county, we are allowed to brown bag in our drinks, so that keeps the cost of the meal down. I know this is one area I need to work on, eating at home.
We use to just go out on weekends, but I am so bored with tv, I just can't stand sitting there watching it.
Early this morning, we got our first snow!! I was suposed to go to a luncheon but it got called off because of the weather. I went grocery shopiping and spent $56, but I saved $6.42 using my Ingles advantage card, plus about $5 for my lunch and tip. So I added $11.42 to my challange money today. I also added over $1.50 to my change jar. We are supposed to go tonight, but I bought meat just in case we don't. So far, the snow is not sticking to the road, so we will probably go anyway!
I got my mutual fund statements in the mail this week, and all of them increased, which is good.
