How Low Can I Go Days 3-7

Day 3- Friday. Honestly, I forgot to write down what I spent on Friday. However, I don't remember buying anything...

Day 4- Saturday. Another day I hadn't planned on spending anything....but, I did. :( I was asked to run a 1 mile race Saturday morning, and since I've been very anxious to get back out there and run, I did it. The entry fee was $15. (I took it out of the "fuel" cash, because, well, it was transportation....) After the race, the lady and her husband and I went and had a cup of coffee and a muffin ($7). Then I did some window shopping, and found two books I really really wanted...so, rather than buy them at the store, I went home and ordered them online. Cost in the store? over $35. Cost through half.com? $12. I'd like to think I saved money... ;) Then, I went home and cleaned my garage for a very low cost, highly satisfing Sat. activity. Saturday night, I needed to get out of the house and celebrate my clean garage. So, for a very cheap $20, I went out with a couple of good friends.

Day 5- Sunday. I filled my car with gas ($45.something, in cash), and then decided I was ready to get back into the groove of the C25K program. To do that, I "had to have" either a new MP3 player (my old one was my old phone that is no longer)--$45 or a bluetooth device so I could listen to music on my new phone--$20. I went with the new bluetooth.

Day 6- Monday. I spent 25cents at the ball game to help Rachel pay for a snack. She brought the rest of the money from home.

Day 7- Today (Tuesday). Nothing yet.

So, lesson learned....weekends kill me! Especially weekends when I'm alone!
