Sabrina’s Money Madness

My spending is starting to get out of control. I have a lot of little incidental expenses that add up to a big drain on my budget. I need to have more no-spend days even if I have to plan them in advance. The last time I got serious I saved an additional $20 in […]

I just got from vacation where I spent a decent amount of money. Then I went food shopping today. I really didn’t need a lot of food because I still had some left over. I went to the store and I still spent a little more than I wanted to. I still spent less than the amount […]
