It is a beautiful day today, so I made my "liquor run" to Murphy, N.C. We live in a "dry" area, you can't even buy beer. The funny thing is you can buy liquor and wine in Murphy, but you can't buy beer! You have to go to a different county for that.
Oh well, my husband is feeling better. He is coming home early and we are going to go meet some people who are interested in building a house.
Dinner was pretty cheap last night. Even tho we ate out, we only spent $10. all dh wanted was chicken soup.Then, I spent $1.93 at the grocery store buying TP and a notebook. I keep a notebook for every job my husband takes and he took a new house to build last night.
I am very please with my $20 challenge and I have build my total from $20 to $786.83 in just 24 days. I got $611.13 in interest credited to my checking account yesterday. I was going to count that because when this 1st house (our spec) gets started, we will use the money that is drawing interest, and there won't be much interest paid on this checking acct.
It is a money market acct. and I can only do 3 checks a month, plus I have to keep a high balance. Once the balance goes down, I will lose the high rate it pays.
What do you think?
Should I use the interest I get every month in my checking and add it to me challenge money?
I am not going to count the interest in my savings.

I will do what you all think! I don't want to look like I am cheating.

Is anyone counting the interest in accounts that they already have?
