I'm not traveling AT ALL this year, so no rental cars, no airline tix, no hotels :sad:
I've decided I can make do with the appliances I already have (stove and washing machine)
No Starbucks (unless I get a gift card)
Won't have my house painted.
No new clothes. Am making do with what I have, and am learning to sew!!
No more eating out...it's not good for me anyway.

Pretty much, I'm going to make do with what I have, and do without the rest. And try to be happy doing both.

    I will save £s this year by not eating junk!! And not putting the heating on unless it's absolutely necessary

    I make my own dishwasher and laundry detergent.
    I purchase everything on sale and preferably with a coupon as well (patience is is a virtue and retailmenot makes it easier)

    We cancelled AT&T home phone line. Trying to take more lunches to work. Eat all the food we buy (hence, shop smarter at the grocer).
