Sabrina’s Money Madness

First there’s the price but that’s secondary to the neighborhood. There’s also a ton of other expenses since I want a condo. I looked at one complex that’s really cool. They’re trying to go green so they’re making improvements left and right. One thing they’re doing is installing solar street lights when it’s time to […]

 I’ve never had to really buy any birthday gifts for children. I usually buy baby shower gifts and that’s all. Since I don’t have any children of my own, I usually don’t get invited to kids’ parties which is fine with me. Now I have a niece and I’ve just received one of the cutest […]

I feel like I buy a new printer at least once a year. I have no idea what in the world I do to them to make them stop working either. I looked on the Wally World website and I saw to all in one devices for less than $35. One is a HP and […]

She wants the new iphone that just came out. I told that we can get her one from an online store later on this year but definitely not before June. I just bought her a phone back in November which she loved when she got it. Unfortunately her sister broke it by accident. Although I […]

 While I was home spending time with my family we took a lot of pictures. We used up about 3 1/2 disposable cameras plus the pictures that my uncle took on his regular camera. He has a really nice digital Canon camera that takes excellent pictures. He kept talking up his camera and trying to […]

Well I already knew that I wouldn’t meet my goals. I had a death in the family in mid-December and I totally cleaned out my house savings account. I had just started it and I was only supposed to save $641.25 this quarter but I used all of that money and some of the money […]

I put almost all of my mom’s stuff into storage a few weeks ago. I put all of her big stuff like her living room furniture, her cabin beds, and her dressers and mirrors. I didn’t worry about some of her dishes and pots and pans because those are relatively inexpensive items to replace.
I was all gung ho about […]

Whew! I was kinda worried that she wouldn’t like it. Teenagers can be finicky and I wasn’t sure what she would think. My friends said that I’m being too accommodating but this phone is a gift and I don’t want to spend my hard earned money and then she not like the phone. That would […]

That was really fast. They’ve actually been in for a couple of days now. I just haven’t made the appointment to go back to the doctors office and pick them up. I was surprised that they came in so quick though. I thought that because I went a few days before Thanksgiving that it would take a […]

My quarterly goal is $641.75 for savings and $20 for debt repayment. I can pay it or save it all at one time or pay something every month. It just depends on how my money comes in each month. Because of the way that I have my budget set up, there will be one month […]

Geesh it seems like every other day someone is asking me for a gift. I guess they figure I’m hitting the Cyber Monday deals pretty hard so I can buy something for them. My niece wants a bunch of stuff but I think I settled on a phone for her. My cousin wants some sports […]

In one of my last posts I said something about avoiding the doctor to keep my costs down. That’s not what I meant. I go to the regular doctor twice a year for a check-up and physical. I also see my dentist twice a year and my eye doctor once a year. All of those […]
