Sabrina’s Money Madness

It was almost a whole month since I’ve had a no-spend day. If I went outside for any reason I was spending money. I didn’t spend anything yesterday or today. I wanted to buy some fruit today but I decided that I would wait until lunch to see if I still wanted it and one […]

I’ve been talking about my weight loss goals for a while now. One of my problems is lack of exercise. I’ve changed my routine and now I work out no less than 3 days per week. Most weeks it’s been 4 times per week. Now to tackle my biggest problem: snacks!
I love Pepsi and Mountain […]

I didn’t get anything in the mail this week. No bills or anything. Not that I’m complaining about not getting bills. I was just surprised when I checked the mail. I’m used to getting a lot of mail every week. Things like Quinceanera invitations, ads and coupons, and of course my bills.
Next week I can […]

My friend finally wants help with her budget. It’s about time! I’m really happy to help her. When she told one of our other friends that I was helping her that person decided she wanted help too. Now there are 3 people that I’m going to work with all at one time.
I told them all […]

I have 45 shares in one company that I invest in. I wanted 100 shares by this time next year. I can have 60-75 but I think 100 may be a stretch. It’s a shame because it’s a cheap stock too. I would hate to see how much I would have invested if the stock […]

One of my friends can’t budget her money to save her life. She’s always running short around payday. I don’t try to judge her because I’m sure there’s been a time when we’ve all been short on cash. The only difference is that we didn’t have the option to get a Loan Until Payday. These […]

Gone baby gone. I just found out that another one of my coworkers had been let go. I was wondering where everyone was. There was one person finishing school so she was on leave. Another person just up and quit. The rest have been fired. This is not exactly the best economy to be out […]

When I had my own business, there was so much to do. It was a pretty small one person operation so I had to do everything myself. I had to order the supplies, see that everything got out on time, balance the books, and pay my vendors. I had even gone so far as to […]

I was in an informal management program here at work. The thinking was that if they trained us in smaller groups, when it was time for the regular program we could be done much faster. Upper management had no idea that this program existed and when they found out, they cancelled it.
I’m pretty ambivalent about […]

I sure do. I’ve been talking about spending my gift cards, my Kohl’s one in particular. I’m not spending it until I find some good deals to spend it on. I don’t want to buy 1 thing when I could have possibly gotten 2 or even 3. I’ve been searching around the internet and I […]

John and I have decided that we aren’t going away for the weekend. I don’t know what we’re going to do for 3 days now but I’m kinda glad that we’re not going away. Where we were going is pretty far and it would have cost a lot for gas and hotels.
Oh well, at least […]

I have a gift card from Kohl’s that my old boss gave me for Christmas. Yeah it’s that old. I don’t really shop at Kohl’s so I’ll just go online to spend it. I’ve already looked at their site and I didn’t see what I really wanted which is sports apparel. They have everything broken […]
